1. The earth’s outer layer or crust is broken into pieces called tectonic plates which are constantly moving towards, away from or past each other. Because continents are part of these plates, they also move. An earthquake occurs when the rocks break and move as a result of stresses caused by plate movements.

Most earthquakes occur on the edge of plates, especially where one plate is forced under another such as happens off Sumatra or past another as occurs in California. Some regions have more earthquakes than others with 80% of all recorded earthquakes taking place around the edge of the Pacific Plate, in New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Japan, Canada, USA and South America.
