It depends on the intensity of the earthquake, the cause of tsunamis. The tectonic plates under the earth's surface are continually moving around and when they grind gainst each other this pressure produces an earthquake. Experts say that the longer a major fault line goes without having an earthquake, the more intense the quake will be once it actually strikes, and that in turn triggers the tsunami. That's why there are so many doomsday theories about California, which sits on top of a major fault line.

An earthquake caused the tsunami, but the tsunami caused the more widspread damage. Also, if a tsunami hits an area, there is very little chance to escape, but in an earthquake you will probably be ok unless something falls on you.

Depends on magnitude. But please note the Asian Tsunami killed hundreds of thousands of people. An earthquake is generally in a small region.
