Well, darling, Mount Vesuvius is located on the boundary where the African Plate is being subducted beneath the Eurasian Plate. So, technically speaking, it's on the African Plate and the Eurasian Plate. But let's be real, those plates are just playing a dangerous tectonic game of chicken under that fiery volcano.
