December 26, 1939 Erzincan, Turkey
The city routinely had to endure the powerful earthquake. In 1939, the element has claimed the lives of 36 to 39 thousand people.
Valdivia was a 9.5, not 9.6.
Also: Alaska, 1964: 9.2 and Kamchatka, Russia, 1952: 9.0.
Damn Earth.
BTW, the latest earthquake had a magnitude of 9 not 9.1.
