TIL that Japan incorporates more disaster planning into its buildings and public spaces than any other nation

Nowhere else has the triple threat of earthquakes, volcanoes and massive kaiju.

Edit: also typhoons and tsunami too

Sounds liked they learned from their history

Days without quakes are rare in Japan: https://www.data.jma.go.jp/multi/quake/

And stronger quakes happen yearly.

Tbf they also disaster a lot

Something keeps reminding them to stay on top of the problem.

I understand what they’re getting at but I always find the phrase “more than any other” to be funny as something will always be the most (even if it’s a tie).

There have been enough horrible earthquakes and heinous loss of life that they take the lesson to heart.

Makes perfect sense.

But can they disasterproof their collapsing population?
