Largest earthquakes by magnitude

Listed below are all the 36 known earthquakes with an estimated magnitude of 8.5 or higher since the year 1500. Limited to a timeframe with enough data, this gives a rough estimate of its frequency per century. (The timeframe does not include outlying events like the earlier 1361 Sh?hei earthquake and 869 Sanriku earthquake, both estimated to have magnitude >= 8.5.)

Prior to the development and deployment of seismographs - starting around 1900 - magnitudes can only be estimated, based on historical reports of the extent and severity of damage.

Statistics are,

Presumably, since historical records (especially in remote areas and in earlier centuries) have not been proven to be complete, then an estimate of the frequency of such events per century may need to take that into account.

  • This list is a work in progress. Information is likely to be changed.
  • Please note, multiple countries could have the same earthquake listed, such as the 1906 Ecuador-Colombia earthquake being listed for both Ecuador and Colombia.
  • Unless otherwise noted, magnitudes are reported on the Moment magnitude scale (Mw).

Costliest earthquakes

This is a list or major earthquakes by the dollar value of property (public and private) losses directly attributable to the earthquake. Rank values are assigned based on inflation-adjusted comparison of property damage in US dollars. Wherever possible, indirect and socioeconomic losses are excluded. Please note that damage estimates for particular earthquakes may vary through time as more data becomes available.
