• The number of people killed and injured by strong earthquakes during the last 100 years was investigated using data from all over the world and separate data on earthquake disasters in Japan. Considering the difference in the social conditions of life in the first half of this century and now, we divided the time period into two parts; before 1950 and after. Some differences in the distribution of human losses for both periods are specified. An evaluation of the total number of victims based on released seismic energy and population density in areas with different degrees of macroseismic intensity was made. Correlations between number of casualties and the magnitudes of earthquakes for certain categories of population denisty were obtained. They from a quantitative scale model of disasters that can be used to make an approximate estimation of the number of killed and injured people that can be used for prevention and risk reduction purposes.
