The 2021 Chignik earthquake was the largest earthquake of 2021; it was also the largest earthquake in the United States since the 1965 Rat Islands earthquake. Moderate damage was reported, with homes shifted from their foundations and cracks in walls. A small tsunami measuring at 21.3 cm (0.7 ft) was recorded in Old Harbor, Alaska.

The 2021 Maduo earthquake, also known as the 5.22 earthquake struck Madoi County in Qinghai Province, China on 22 May at 02:04 local time. The earthquake had a moment magnitude and surface-wave magnitude of 7.4. Highway bridges, roads and walls collapsed as a result of the earthquake.
A pie chart comparing the seismic moment release of the three largest earthquakes for the hundred-year period from 1906 to 2005 with that for all earthquakes of magnitudes <6, 6 to 7, 7 to 8, and >8 for the same period. The 2011 Japan quake would be roughly similar to Sumatra. Earthquakes of magnitude 8.0 and greater from 1900 to 2018.
