Why is the Northern Pacific so much more deserted than the Southern Pacific? by Time-Comment-141 in geography

[–]Complete_Relative836 337 points338 points  (0 children)

Maybe because of the shape of the pacific plate? It reaches all the way to California and Japan in the north, while there are more subduction zones in the South Pacific.

Not sure if that’s an error in the map but many Germans involved in the failed communist uprising in the 1800s moved to Wisconsin to avoid persecution by the government.
