The global pattern of Earthquakes is that most of all earthquakes happen near or at a tectonic plate. They are caused by different plate movements; convergent (where an oceanic plate goes beneath a continental plate), Divergent (two tectonic plates moving away from each other and constructing the plate in the middle), and Transform (where the plates move along side each other, going in opposite directions).
