Sulawesi Island : Earthquake
An earthquake of magnitude 5.7 struck Sulawesi in Indonesia recently.
Sulawesi, formerly known as Celebes, is a large island in Southeast Asia, in the Indonesian archipelago.
It is part of the island chain known as the Greater Sunda Islands.
It is the 11th largest island in the world. It covers an area of 180,680.7 sq. km.
The island consists almost entirely of four interconnecting peninsulas.
The island is surrounded on all sides by other big islands: Borneo to the west, Philippines to the north, the Maluku Islands to the east, and Flores and Timor to the south.
The island is highly mountainous, with some active volcanoes.
Sulawesi is known for its rainforests, which once covered the entire island until human activity led to mass deforestation.
The highest peak on the island of Sulawesi is Ratenkombola, which is also known simply as Mario. It reaches a height of 3,455 meters.
The island contains thirteen freshwater lakes including the deepest lake, Matano, in Southeast Asia.
Seven major ethnic groups inhabit Sulawesi: the Toala, Toraja, Buginese, Makassarese, Minahasan, Mori, and Gorontalese.
Makassar is the largest city on the island.
