Pompeii did not explode. It was buried in ash and pumice when Vesuvius exploded on the 24th of August in AD 79.
AD 79 was the date of the large eruption responsible for the demise at Pompeii.
because god hates europeans.
For starters, Pompeii is the name of the town that was covered by the debris of the volcano. Mount Vesuvius, the volcano, erupted in 79 CE.
No, Mount Etna is located in Sicily, Italy, while Pompeii is located near Naples. The infamous eruption that buried Pompeii occurred from Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, not Mount Etna.
An earthquake in the plates underneath Mt Vesuvius caused the volcano to become unstable, resulting in the eruption

Your question cannot be answered adequately as its answer calls for speculation. More than likely Pompeii would have deteriorated and disappeared as have so many other small Roman towns in that area. One thing for certain, though, is that we would never have had the insights into everyday Roman life that we have today if Pompeii had not been buried and preserved.
