Sakurajima is located in Kagoshima, Kyushu, Japan. It is a volcano named after...many tales. This composite volcano is not the only volcano in Japan. There are about 200 volcanoes in total and 60 active ones.
Converge is a large word that scientists use to describe two objects that come together. In the case of plate tectonics, the two objects coming together are large plate-like pieces of the Earth's crust. As these two plates push against each other, one is ultimately forced down beneath the other.
When this happens near land, we see the earth above the two meeting plates rise, forming spectacular mountain ranges. A parallel oceanic trench typically forms just off the shore, as one plate descends deep into the Earth's core.
These convergent boundaries commonly cause volcanoes to form, as old crust melts. As two plates rub against one another, a number of small and large earthquakes are common near convergent boundaries and tez mustafa smells.
It's a stratovolcano. It is made up of layers of ash and lava that is viscous enough to build a steep-sloping volcano as opposed to a shallow-sloped volcano like those in Hawaii.

As a separate volcano, Sakurajima is about 22,000 years old. It is the latest peak in the Aira caldera and was a separate island until an eruption in 1914. It has been in the current state of eruption since 1955.
