The number of deaths due to earthquakes changes year by year. If earthquakes over a particular year hit major cities then the deal toll is usually much higher.

For a 10-year period from 1991–2000, the average death count per year due to earthquakes is around 5,000 people.


For 1981-1990, the average death count per year was over 8,000 largely due to the Manjil–Rudbar earthquake in 1990 that killed over 40,000 people.

It depends on the magnitude of the earthquake, how stable the buildings are that people are in, if liquefaction occurs and how deep the focus is

1,500 million people died during an earthquake. Earthquakes cause a lot of damage and cracks move when it has enough pressure and that is called fault.

It depends on the type of earth quake, level on the Richter's scale, place, time, date, ect. You need to be more specific...
