quake maps denoting global quakes

This link will give you a map that denotes earthquakes around the world in 2004: https://earthquake.usgs.gov/static/lfs/data/dyfi/pdfs-global/Global2004.pdf (Year of the tsunami that slammed into beaches in the Indian Ocean. This tsunami (or I should say, series of tsunamis on various islands) killed FAR more than the East Japan quake tsuanami. Over 100,000 lives were lost in these Indian Ocean islands. It was absolutely horrific.

This link will give you a map that denotes earthquakes around the world in 2008: https://earthquake.usgs.gov/static/lfs/data/dyfi/pdfs-global/Global2008.pdf This was the year of the devastating Sichuan quake in China.

This link will give you a map that denotes earthquakes around the world in 2011: https://earthquake.usgs.gov/static/lfs/data/dyfi/pdfs-global/Global2011.pdf (Year of the 9.0 East Japan quake.)

This link will give you a map that denotes earthquakes around the world in 2015: https://earthquake.usgs.gov/static/lfs/data/dyfi/pdfs-global/Global2015.pdf (Year of the quake in Nepal.)

These maps take a rather long time to load, so wait patiently. If it is taking absolutely forever, try again.  =O)
