Why do volcanic eruptions happen mostly in Hawaii japan and Yellowstone?

They don't. Earth averages about 50 volcanic eruptions on land each year in many locations around the world. Yellowstone has not experienced a volcanic eruption in thousands of years. This activity is attributed to a n area of especially hot mantle called a hot spot melting rock beneath the crust. Hawaii is notable for the presence of Kilauea, which has had a single eruption ongoing since 1983 and so attracts a great deal of attention. This activity is dues to a hot spot. Japan sees a fair amount of volcanic activity due to the convergence of several of earth's tectonic plates. Hawaii, Japan, and Mount Etna in Sicily are probably the most volcanically active sites in developed nations. Other volcanic zones with high activity include the Andean volcanic belt in western South America, Indonesia, the Aleutian Arc in Alaska, and the East African Rift.
