Where did the 3 worst earthquakes occur in US?

This is debatable, but the three worst earthquakes in the U.S. were likely the San Francisco earthquake of 1906, the Alaskan earthquake of 1964, and the New Madrid, Missouri earthquake, which was in the early 19th century.


Why the San Francisco earthquake of 1906 was important?

It led to geological studies that have proven that the Andreas fault line is certain to cause periodic earthquakes such as the one in San Francisco in 1989. What it did was cause architects and engineers to build buildings that can withstand certain levels of earthquakes. Earth movements in California are common. No major earthquakes have happened in the last few decades. However, as in 1906, the earth has demonstrated that havoc can happen at any time in the future.


How the difference or similarity between the 1989 and 1906 of earthquakes' information?

The 1989 earthquake occurred in the Bay Area of California, known as the Loma Prieta earthquake, causing significant damage as well.
