How come in Haiti's earthquake around 200000 got killed but in Japan's recent earthquake that was stronger?

Japan has been earthquake prepared for years and years. Although earthquakes are unpredictable and can reek havoc in a matter of minutes. Its usually of short duration for that minuteor minutes. When they occur as well as other natural disasters, people Adapt to their circumstances as did the Japanese. Japan was able to adapt to its earthquake hazard. But sunamis rush in at times 500 miles an hour toward unprotected areas of coastline, leaving homes and such vunerable to destruction and unfortunately sunami alert systems are not up to par in many areas as of yet. Haiti.....being a very poor country does not have the capability of protecting themselves.
