Damage it has done?

  • Krakatoa has done a lot of damage to the places and people around it.

At least 36,417 people were killed, most people died from giant sea waves, and coastal villages were destroyed. When the eruption ended, only ⅓ of Krakatau remained above sea level and new islands formed from the magma spewing out of the volcano

  • It had destroyed and formed lands while also causing havoc for residents and other countries.



How and when was it formed?

  • Since Krakatoa lies along the Indian-Australian and Eurasian tectonic plates its how it was formed. Because the two tectonic plates are dangerous at risk of high volcanic and seismic activity it's pretty common that one was made. It supposedly started/formed in 400 BC.
