Rare back-to-back deadly earthquakes hit Venezuela on Wednesday, killing and injuring hundreds. Here are some of the deadliest earthquakes in South and Central America in the past century.

A 7.2-magnitude earthquake and a 7.5-magnitude were less than a minute apart, said the U.S. Geological Survey. The second earthquake was the largest to hit the country since 1900.

Both quakes measured over 7.0 magnitude, with tremors being felt as far as more than a thousand miles away in Brazil’s Amazon region.

The quakes are among the strongest to strike Venezuela in more than a century
