Do all countries have earthquakes?
Earthquakes can generally occur anywhere in the world, but most happen at plate boundaries.
Has an earthquake ever occurred in the middle of a continent?
Yes, earthquakes can occur in the middle of continents. These are known as intraplate earthquakes and can be caused by geological faults or weaknesses within the continental crust. While less common than earthquakes along plate boundaries, intraplate earthquakes can still occur in areas far from tectonic plate boundaries.

What plate boundary do earthquakes occur?

Which region do earthquakes most likely occur in?
