On Saturday April 25th 2015, Nepal witnessed one of history’s worst earthquakes which claimed over 5000 lives and destroyed many historical sites. Though earthquakes are naturally-occurring incidents that are caused by the sudden release of energy in the earth’s shifting crust thus creating seismic waves, the devastation caused by this natural event is incomprehensible. Some of the worst earthquakes in history have claimed countless lives and billions of dollars worth of property damage. From the recent Nepal Earthquake which has so far caused the lives of over 5,000 people to Port-au-Prince, Haiti, here are 25 of the worst earthquakes in the world, both in the number of deaths and magnitude.

some of the pictures do not relate with the years the earthquakes occured.

When was the camera invented and how were they able to take pictures of an earthquake in the year 1556 undecided

Only China has about 6 of the recorded 25 in this post yet the country keeps marching on developmentally. One can only imagine if this happened in Nigeria, considering the state of governance and Whatnots, we surely would have been stuck in the stone age! Its just as if God balanced the equation of the world with these things.

China appeared seven times in the list! The rest are pretty much Asia countries. Who did this to them? Despite this they have the largest economy in the world and are growing on a remarkably scale.

Natural disasters are preventable if only humans learn from the mistakes of the past.
Natural disasters don't happen instantly without danger signals that will be enough to warn people to escape before it is too late. But ignorance continues to kill ignorant people.

With what exactly? Poor leaders? Bad roads? Ebola? Tribalism? Poverty? Lack of constant electricity(Nigeria namely)?

The amount of people that have died from lack of quality health care or as a result of any of the above far exceeds the amount of any one earthquake incidents on the list.

Ironically, most of the countries hit(save maybe for haiti) are more advanced and above the poverty level than any African country

In all these, we see a repeat of history and it is a pointer to future events. Without doubt, there is a great shaking coming, a shaking in which scientist can't dare deny, the fears are written all over; mother nature is in the pangs of pain preparing to bring fort, she will bring forth; prior to that, earth will be jolted and the foolishness of man's virtual wisdom will be made manifest.
