All these cities are located along the Ring of Fire. Well-known for its tectonic activity, the Ring of Fire, also called the Circum-Pacific belt, is most earthquake- prone region in the world. About 90% of the world's earthquakes and 81% of the world's largest earthquakes occur along the Ring of Fire. The next most seismic region, or earthquake-prone region, is the Alpide belt that extends from the Mediterranean region, eastward through Turkey, Iran, and northern India. At this region, 5 to 6% of the world’s earthquakes occur.دانة أبوعيشةhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08554710451033036099noreply@blogger.com
