Since the year 1700, the most deadly volcanic eruption was Mt. Tambora, Indonesia on April 5, 1815. It is estimated to have killed 12,000 people directly from the blast and another 80,000 from starvation following the event.
It's not possible to say for sure, as volcanoes have been around for as long as the Earth, but the evidence for past eruptions tends to disappear over time.
The Lake Toba eruption around 75,000 years ago was most probably the most destructive eruption that has taken place while humans have been around.
The Deccan Traps eruptions 65 million years ago are considered to have played a major role in the changing climate around the time of the extinction of the dinosaurs.The most destructive volcanic eruption of all time when there were NO humans was the three major eruptions of Mt.Yellowstone in Yellowstone millions or billions of years ago.It's a super volcano but is there such thing as a super volcanic eruption?
tambora was the largest eruption and it killed 92,000 people
Tambora killed an estimate of 92,000 people because of :
1.Famine
2.Pyroclastic Flows
3.The "year without a summer"
It depends how you define destructive... The 1815 eruption of Mount Tambora was the most deadly, ultimately leading to the deaths of around 92,000 people.
Yes!
No. The west coast is the most likely place for a volcanic eruption.

Vulcano's highest VEI (volcanic explosivity index) occurred in 183 BC, and was recorded by human observation. The most recent destructive eruption occurred in 1888, and involved a central vent eruption, lahars, and pyroclastic flows.
Yes!
most recent and destructive was the eruption that was in 1707-1708
A destructive margin
When eruption types are arranged from most destructive to least, it is in descending order.

two benefits of a volcanic eruption one is that it help plants grow and Volcanic materials ultimately break down and weather to form some of the most fertile soils on Earth
No. The west coast is the most likely place for a volcanic eruption.
