Earth has seven tiles and when they wobble or move they make earthquakes, where there are joints of tiles they make earthquakes e.g. Japan. Japan is on the ends of two tiles and it also has volcanos so its easier to have volcanic eruptions so when they wobble or move they crack the lasnd and also make earthquakes happen
