When we think of earthquakes in the United States, we usually think of California as being most frequently in the news for such events. But Alaska has the most earthquakes of any US state, and the strongest earthquakes. Quoted in an article for CNN (December 1, 2018), Randy Baldwin of the US Geological Survey explained why California often gets more media attention for earthquakes there: ""California probably gets more media attention than Alaska due mainly to the population factor. Anchorage has a population of around 300,000, while there are numerous large population centers in California." So earthquakes in California tend to disrupt the lives of a greater number of people than the earthquakes in Alaska.

The German military
The Treaty of Versailles had been very punitive toward Germany, limiting it to an army of no more than 100,000 men, a navy of only a few dozen ships (and no submarines), and an air force of no more than 100 unarmed search and rescue aircraft. Hitler's rebuilding of the German military, in violation of the Versailles terms, actually began in secret in 1933 but went public in 1935. By then Germany already had a 300,000 man army and over 2,000 war planes, with plans for additional buildup.
