Japan Earthquake And Tsunami Photos

We here would like to extend our deepest condolences to the people of Japan affected by the devastating earthquake and the tsunami that hit the country on March 11, 2011. Japan is a great and safe country, full of great hardworking people which allowed it to get developed into one of the world’s strongest economies.

That also means that Japan was better prepared for a natural disaster, however a hit of such magnitude is bound to leave a mark any way you spin it. This earthquake appears to be the 5th most powerful earthquake since record-keeping started in 1900.

The tsunami it triggered seems to be the most brutal yet (the wave got 10 kilometres into the land in Sendai area of Japan, one entire village of 1,000 people got literally wiped out of the surface of the Earth) making for a disaster of epic proportions. I’m dedicating to posting to one of the major natural disasters to hit the earth in our lifetime.
