When did the last tsunami hit Japan?

The last major tsunami to hit Japan occurred in 2011 as a result of a magnitude 9.0 earthquake that triggered massive waves, causing widespread destruction and killing thousands of people. The tsunami also caused a nuclear disaster at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, which forced the evacuation of over 100,000 people. Japan has since launched a massive recovery effort and made significant progress in recovering from the disaster, although there are still areas that are struggling to fully recover. Japan has a sophisticated warning system in place to alert people of potential tsunamis and is investing in disaster preparedness and response measures to reduce the impact of future disasters.
