Every quake of 1914

Magnitude 4.5 and up, newest first.

None of magnitude 4.5 or more. Palestinian Territory’s quakes that year, if any, were smaller than the catalog lists here.

What this means

The catalog is only as complete as the instruments of the time. Worldwide coverage of magnitude 5 and up dates from the 1960s, and of 4.5 from the 1990s; earlier years hold the large quakes and the ones near a station, so a low count in an early year means fewer instruments, not a quiet earth.
