	Almost a hundred thousand people were killed and half a million homes destroyed as a result of an earthquake in Tokyo in 1923.

As a result, small fires broke out everywhere and quickly spread. Consequently, over ninety percent of the damage was caused by fire rather than by the collapse of the buildings. If the earthquake had occurred at night while people were sleeping, far fewer would have died.

1. When did the earthquake occur in Tokyo?
