the Year 200 and up , so it seems like we have small earthquakes everyday So my guess is over 3 X 365=1095X 1811= 1,983,045

Earthquakes happen most along tectonic plate boundaries, such as the Pacific Ring of Fire. This is because the movement of tectonic plates causes stress to build up until it is released in the form of an earthquake. Areas where two plates meet, such as subduction zones or transform faults, are especially prone to earthquakes.
Oxnard, California, is situated in a seismically active region, but the frequency of earthquakes can vary. On average, small earthquakes occur in the area several times a year, often going unnoticed by residents. More significant earthquakes are less common, with larger events typically occurring every few decades. For precise and up-to-date statistics, it's best to consult local geological surveys or earthquake monitoring services.
Earth is made up of many tectonic plates. When these plates shift, earthquakes happen. The tectonic plates are always moving, but most of the earthquakes are tremors (depends on how close you are to the place the tectonic plates are shifting).
Earthquakes happen when there is a sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust. This can be caused by movements along faults, volcanic activity, or other geological processes. The stress that builds up along fault lines is eventually released in the form of seismic waves, causing the ground to shake.

The earth's crust is divided up into large sections called tectonic plates. The plates slowly grind past each other, which often builds up tension. When this tension is released earthquakes are the result. For this reason nearly all major earthquakes happen at the boundaries between plates.
Earthquakes happen when tectonic plates along fault lines shift and release built-up pressure, causing the ground to shake. The sudden release of energy creates seismic waves that result in vibrations felt on the Earth's surface.
Earthquakes are caused by two plates getting hung up, or locked in place. The tremors that follow are the usual forces that move the tectonic plates.
because pressure builds up in these places
There are exactly 200 of them.
Earthquakes happen when there is a sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust, usually caused by the movement of tectonic plates. This movement creates stress and pressure that builds up over time until it is released in the form of seismic waves, causing the ground to shake.
under land: Mountains, earthquakes, tsunamis, ....Look up the 'wilson cycle'
They do occur where volcanoes are, but it is not because of the volcanoes itself. It is because under the earth's surface there are tectonic plates (plates that make up the earth's crust) that shift, and occasionally collide into one another. This is what causes the ground to shake. This shaking is what we interpret as earthquakes.
