Abstract: Türkiye’s founder, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk once wrote, "Our true mentor in life is science." What would he have thought about February 6, 2023. What was not done prior and post-disastrous Earthquakes? This research paper stands for the people whose lives were lost unnecessarily in this human tragedy. The research will illustrate the following in absolute detail. The lethargic response by both the Turkish government and its military to aid the affected regions which left destitute survivors amidst the toxic dust and rubble with their family members entombed in their former homes in subzero conditions. Secondly, the results will also show that Türkiye has a long history of seismic activity and the region in question was due for a large earthquake. Thirdly, vast comparisons were made between Türkiye and Japan; this draft will highlight the lack of action following the 1999 Kocaeli-Izmit quakes compared to the modernity of Japan where buildings and lives are preserved by a big number. Fourthly, the paper will prove the nepotism and corruption that has engulfed Türkiye within the building industry and the lax in enforcing regulations, and its president’s continued war on academe. Fifth, this research had also investigated the differences between Japan’s and Türkiye’s earthquake early warning systems and building designs. Sixth, the investigation has proved once and for all that earthquake prediction is a fallacy, where the foremost authority in seismology has elucidated coherently on this issue, rather than academics stating publicly that another big quake could occur in a certain timeframe. Sixth, Turkish politics is now in turmoil since this calamity, political party infighting trying to score points shamefully prior to a pending election, while victims still suffer. Finally, this was a difficult project for this researcher to undertake, where so many lives and buildings destroyed, could have been avoided.
