When does an earthquake come?
The main reasons for earthquake occur are dynamics and mutual conflicts of geological plates. The outer surface of the earth is made of seven large and several small tectonic plates. These plates remain in constant motion. When these plates collide, slide or go under each other, that energy takes out as an earthquake. Stress is collected over time in the edge of the plates or in the fault lines. When this stress exceeds a range, the rocks break and suddenly energy is free, causing an earthquake.
