Earthquakes by country
Recorded earthquakes across 148 countries. The archive holds 6,504,586 unique events since 1900, merged from five catalogues.
A country is credited based on the epicentre's distance to its border; larger earthquakes count over a wider radius. An earthquake near a border can therefore appear under two countries. Counts for countries with overseas territories (France, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom) include those territories.
