Answer:
Japan has hundreds of small earthquakes each year.
Explanation:
Japan is an island nation consisting of hundreds of islands of varying size. The islands of Japan have been formed because of the convergent boundary between the Eurasian and Pacific plates, creating a subduction zone, and volcanic activity formed the island arc now known as Japan.
By being located at a subduction zone, Japan is a country that experiences earthquakes on a daily basis. Practically, there isn't a single day in the year when there isn't an earthquake because of the high tectonic activity in the area. Luckily, the vast majority of the earthquakes are not dangerous and are of small intensity. Every now and then though there is the occasional earthquake that is pretty strong, and this can cause huge damages and loss of human lives, be it because of the earthquake itself or because of a tsunami that it has formed and hit the coastline.
