In this essay I want to talk about the country India andcity Kerala . I have made this essay to give more information to people thatthey will know more about india.the are what I choose is Kerala, in olden daysthey used to call it keralam.
it is located in the south of India, in theMalabar coast .this country was formed on November 1 1956 the language they usein it is called Malayalam, it is bordered with Karnataka to the north andnortheast. Tamil Nadu to the east and south, and the Lakshadweep Sea to thewest. Kerala is the thirteenth-largest Indian state by population. It isdivided into 14 districts with the capital and the largest city being Thiruvananthapuram.Tsunamis are the result of earthquakes and can be one of the most deadlyresults of such a geological disturbance. Tsunamis are large waves that arecreated when an earthquake occurs out at sea.
The plates shift and the motioncauses a huge wave that builds up momentum and size as it reaches land masses.These huge waves, as high as 100 feet can take out buildings, structures andcause destruction for miles. Many people have become homeless or have lostfamily and friends in the furious flood of a tsunami. In my area in 2012 a verymassive tsunami hit Kerala but until know we didn’t have any tsunami.

Epicentersof Mutt am, Kerala. Earthquakes are the result of the movement oftectonic plates below the surface of the Earth. The plates create a shockingeffect on the land. The shock relates to strength, known as the magnitude, ofthe earthquake. Major earthquakes damage structures that may lead to deathwhile small earthquakes are often barely felt. An earthquake canaffect the land in several ways.
When an earthquake hits, it shakes the groundand causes structures to shake as well. When a structure is old or has not beenproperly built to withstand the force of an earthquake, it can collapse,causing damage to surrounding buildings as well as people. Building collapsesare the main cause of fatalities during and after an earthquake as the shakingground rarely causes any deaths in and of itself. Theearthquake was centered 1.
