the plate boundaries were Eurasian and African.
Mount Vesuvius is the result of the convergence of the African and Eurasian plates.
the african and european
the two plates
Mount Vesuvius is located above a subduction zone formed where the African plate descends beneath Italy.
Mount Vesuvius is located on the African Plate. The African Plate is slowly moving northward towards the Eurasian Plate, causing the volcanic activity in the region. The movement of these plates creates the conditions that lead to volcanic eruptions like the one that destroyed Pompeii in AD 79.
convergent
Mount Vesuvius is located at a convergent plate boundary where the African Plate is subducting beneath the Eurasian Plate. This subduction leads to the build-up of pressure and the formation of magma that eventually erupts to create the volcano.
a big volcano that errupted
Mount Vesuvius (in Italian: Monte Vesuvio. in Latin: Mons Vesuvius).
Mount Vesuvius is dormant (sleeping), not extinct.
There is no telling when Mount Vesuvius will erupt next.
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.
