Making mexico more like california. Although I didn't think that earthquakes in Mexico were all that rare.

"Mexico City's soft soil and geology make it especially sensitive to distant earthquakes."

No chit! Lake Texcoco was a natural lake formation within the Valley of Mexico. The Aztecs built the city of Tenochtitlan on an island in the lake. The Spaniards built Mexico City over Tenochtitlan. Efforts to control flooding led to most of the lake being drained, leaving a much smaller Lake Texcoco east of the city, surrounded by salt marsh. When you build a city on Jello expect jiggly wiggly piggery poo mmmm yeah.
