Why was the earthquake that struck Haiti in 2010 so much more deadly than the earthquake that struck Tohoku, Japan, in 2011?

It was because of the weak foundation and less adoption of preventive measures for the construction of buildings and other commercial buildings

Explanation:

The earthquake of Haiti took place in the year 2010. The magnitude of this earthquake was 7, and the focus of this earthquake was about 13 kilometers below the surface of the earth. It was a large earthquake and killed more than 300,000 peoples.

Whereas, the earthquake of Tohoku, Japan took place in the year 2011. The magnitude of this earthquake was 9, and its focus was nearly 29 kilometers below the earth's surface. It was a huge earthquake that took the lives of about 16,000 peoples.

The Haiti earthquake was considered to be more deadly in comparison to the Tohoku earthquake. It is because the buildings and the other infrastructures were not built with the proper foundation and preventive measures. So, it resulted in the killing of a large number of people.
