the china earthquake obviously happened in china but it happend in a place called Sichuan. Can anyboy else tell me why did the earthquake happen?
Sichuan is a very active tectonic area. The earthquake in Sichuan of May 2008 was caused by the movement along a fault line. The deformation of the crust in this region was caused by the collision between the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates. This has created the Himalayas over the years as earthquakes are common in this collision zone. The earthquake was felt in Beijing and Shanghai, over 1500km away.
because they already had earthquakes so now they know what to do
