When and where is the strongest magnitude of earthquake that ever recorded?

According to wikipedia, the strongest earthquake recorded, was in Valdivia Chile, on May 22, 1960. It was a 9. 5 magnitude.

On March 27.1964, in Prince William Sound, Alaska, there was a 9.2 On Dec.26, 2004, in Sumatra, Indonesia, they had a 9.1 On March 11, 2011, Sendai, Japan, it was recorded as 9.0 As there are no actual readings before 1900, it really can't be proved if the Valdivia Chile earthquake was the strongest, but this was the recorded magnitude in 1960.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
