Visitors to Switzerland usually include Basel  in their list of cities. It has a population of over 350,000, the majority of whom speak German. However, it is considered a kind of international city, because it stands right at the point where three countries meet.  Many visitors go to the place in the city where three­sided marker says France on one side, Germany on another, and Switzerland on the third. The Rhine which divides the city, becomes wide and deep enough just at this point for ships to sail all the way up to the North Sea.

Basel is quite an old city too, having risen in importance five centuries ago. The University of Basel was founded in 1460, and is still wellknown today.

Earthquakes are something that people                             fear.

In 1923, a very strong earthquake hit Tokyo, Yokohama area of Japan. A hundred and forty thousand people died. Most of them died in fires which followed the earthquake.
