Trivia: In 1906, a major earthquake greatly damaged what city?
San Francisco, California
Miami, Florida

The correct answer is San Francisco, California
So why is this answer correct? : The Great San Francisco Earthquake of 1906 still ranks as one of the most significant earthquakes of all time. In the early morning of April 18, the northernmost section of the San Andreas fault was ruptured, causing massive horizontal displacements and a large cumulative offset. With an epicenter near San Francisco, the quake caused tremendous damage across the Bay Area city, which spent the next few years rebuilding.
