People do not currently live in Mount Tambora as it is an active volcano located in Indonesia. However, nearby communities have settled in the region due to its scenic beauty, fertile volcanic soil for agriculture, and access to natural resources such as timber and minerals.
Mount Tambora is located on the Eurasian plate and another one these are converging plates
The magma build up was so great it caused it to explode.
Mount Tambora formed as a result of a subduction zone. Here, a section of the ocean floor that is part of the Indo-Australian Plate is sliding under part of the Eurasian Plate and into the mantle. The oceanic crust takes some water and other volatiles with it. This seeps into the superheated rock of the mantle, allowing it to melt. It then rises toward the surface and through the crust via cracks. This then emerges on the surface, forming volcanoes such as Mount Tambora.
Not a hope. Even now, 135 years later, with all the scientific and engineering expertise we've accumulated since Krakatoa blew its top, if we had a few months' advance warning that such an explosion was imminent, about all we would be able to do is move a bunch of people out of harm's way and set up a lot of cameras, because nothing mankind is yet able to accomplish would alter such an immense natural cataclysm in the slightest.
In 1883 we were still firmly in the age of steam power -- cobbling together 200 horsepower was about as impressive a feat of mechanical force as we could manage back then. Krakatoa simply dwarfed our capacities to effect change on the world. Its explosion is still at least four times more powerful than the most enormous nuclear explosion we've been able to achieve.

Mount Vesuvius is a stratovolcano, a volcanic mountain shaped like a cone. It can also be called a composite volcano. Stratovolcanos are built from layers of volcanic ash and rock fragments.
No. Mount Tambora is in the shape of a caldera form from a stratovolcano.
Using radiocarbon dating technique, it has been established that Mount Tambora had erupted three times before the 1815 eruption, but the magnitudes of these eruptions are unknown. Their estimated dates are 3910 BC ± 200 years, 3050 BC and AD 740 ± 150 years.
Only certain plants and moss are able to survive there and animals pass through but do not make a home. The final zone is the summit, which is marked by glaciers and a thin atmosphere. Few animals or plants live in the uppermost reaches.

It rises to 9,255 ft.

In 1815 Mount Tambora in Indonesia killed over 90,000 people. 10,000 alone were killed because of the pyroclastic flow. 80,000 more dies because the ash killed all the crops and vegetaion causing people to die from starvation or disease. I don't know exactly how many people dies but it was over 90,000.
It was formed from the volcanism created by a subducting oceanic plate at a convergent plate boundary. I looked on a map and the plates that were Mount tambora was situated next to were the eurasian and indo-australian plates
mount Tambora is 5000 years old and when it erupted on it killed 50,000 victims and the date that it erupted in 1819
