Natural Disasters

What part of the world is most affected by natural disasters?? Different parts of the world are affected differently by different natural disasters. For example, Tornado Alley in America is commonly affected by tornadoes, but has relatively low incidinces of flooding. China and its surrounding countries are most commonly affected by earthquakes, the Pacific Islands are more hit by tsunamis and volcanic eruptions, Tornado Alley is often hit by guess what, and cities and towns near large rivers are affected by floods after heavy rains or snowmelts.
What can you do to protect yourself from natural disasters? It depends on the type of disaster. In case of floods or tsunami, the best thing is to move to high ground. if you get word of a tornado in your area, take your things, move away for a bit and pray that your house doesn't get destroyed. If you are caught in an earthquake, get under a sturdy object or a doorframe and wait for it to pass.
