Mt. Stromboli is an active volcano.
The interaction between continental plates floating on the surface of the mantle creates mountains and volcanoes. Mount Stromboli was created through the convergence of two tectonic plates, which pushed upward and created a submerged deep ocean volcano in the ocean. Converging plates are typically responsible for the creation of volcanoes.
