The Nias earthquake, which struck off the west coast of Sumatra, Indonesia, in March 2005, was primarily caused by the movement of tectonic plates along the boundary of the Indo-Australian Plate and the Eurasian Plate. This region is known for its complex tectonic activity, where the subduction of the Indo-Australian Plate beneath the Eurasian Plate generates stress that can lead to significant seismic events. The release of this built-up stress resulted in the earthquake, which was part of a series of seismic events affecting the area.
