It is a very large 'region.' It is called the Ring of Fire. It starts in the far South Pacific, well below New Zealand, proceeds North and slightly West through Indonesia and tends toward Japan. Then it heads in a Northeastern direction and arcs through the Aleutians and heads South again, into the Pacific encompassing the Hawaiian Islands region and the West Coast of South America. It is a very long 'belt' of vicious volcanic activity.
