Let’s shake it up with a list of the 11 countries with most earthquakes. Earthquakes have been one of the most devastating natural disasters humans have experienced. A slight movement of the earth’s crust can violently recreate the land that we know, creating new formations, destroying old ones, and even dragging a few into the depth of oceans. We’ve witnessed some major cataclysms caused by very strong earthquakes, cities razed and people dead, tsunamis from strong earthquakes originating from the middle of the ocean.
