A volcano that is very dangerous is Mt. Vesuvius that last erupted in 1944. It is the only active volcano in mainland Europe. In 79 AD it buried the city of Pompeii and the surrounding area. It is so active that it could explode at any time with over a million people living near it. Italy has a system of a volcano threat level and it requires constant scientific study so people can be warned.
