Earthquake prone countries prepare for earthquakes by implementing building codes that require structures to be earthquake-resistant, conducting regular drills and exercises to educate the public on how to respond during an earthquake, monitoring seismic activity, and establishing emergency response plans. Additionally, these countries invest in early warning systems and public awareness campaigns to help reduce the impact of earthquakes.
The earthquake in Haiti primarily affected Haiti itself. However, it did receive international aid and support from various countries and organizations around the world.
The term "epicenter" typically refers to the point on the Earth's surface directly above where an earthquake originates. As such, the countries near an epicenter can vary depending on the specific earthquake. For instance, if an earthquake occurs near the border of Turkey and Greece, those two countries would be the nearest. To provide an accurate answer, the specific location of the epicenter is needed.
An earthquake
look up the Japan earthquake that struck this year 2011, or american ones, try googling names of rich countries for there earthquake history and you should find something there to help you!!:DD
Because they're rich. They can afford the materials and engineers to design them and build them. The rich countries share designs with poorer countries, but the poor countries simply don't have the wealth to build the structures.
Queensland's
No other countries were affected.
The U.S
they're both mediteran countries, balkan countries, not very rich countries with a rich history.

In poorer countries they have a small budget so how much they spend is very important. Since they have a small budget and need to make it last the quality of the material used is low. This makes the buildings poorly built and not well supported. Buildings are not made to withstanding side to side movements and so topple over. This causes building to fall over by either the earthquake itself or the aftershocks. When buildings fall people die
