Earthquakes in 2001 Approximate epicenters of the earthquakes in 2001
Strongest magnitude 8.4 Mw Peru Deadliest 7.7 Mw India 20,023 deaths Total fatalities 21,465 9.0+ 0 8.0–8.9 1 7.0–7.9 14 6.0–6.9 122 5.0–5.9 1,212 4.0–4.9 7,968
This is a list of earthquakes in 2000 . Only earthquakes of magnitude 6 or above are included, unless they result in significant damage and/or casualties. All dates are listed according to UTC time. The maximum intensities are based on the Modified Mercalli intensity scale . Earthquake magnitudes are based on data from the USGS . Fourteen earthquakes ≥M7 occurred within the year, along with one ≥M8 event.
Throughout the year, earthquakes killed 21,465 people; the vast majority of the fatalities were attributed to an unusually powerful Mw 7.7 earthquake intraplate earthquake that struck the Indian state of Gujarat . Early in the year, two earthquakes struck El Salvador , killing nearly 1,300 people and causing damage across the entire country. The largest event of the year, a Mw 8.4 earthquake , struck off Peru's southern coast and triggered a large tsunami . Other notable earthquakes struck Japan, the United States and China.

Note that an increase in detected earthquake numbers does not necessarily represent an increase in earthquakes per se. Population increase, habitation spread, and advances in earthquake detection technology all contribute to higher earthquake numbers being recorded over time. USGS's Website has more information.
