This is awesome, not really 100% sure, but if they’re following the fault lines of the plates that’s so fucking cool.
It is kind of the xkcd that shows how lots of graphs are just population graphs, but for earthquakes and fault lines
Very happy to live in a dark gray area of the world.
Tohoku earthquake?
Super interesting to see how Europe and Africa is so calm compared to the rest of the continents. I wonder if it correlates in any way with why Europe was home to so many rich empires over the last centuries. Only in the very recent history we are able to somewhat tame the effects of earthquakes in the more developed countries.
Not geo major.
Africa and Europe are on plates, where as Japan, states and pacific are edge of plates.
