i heard 1500 earthquakes:D hope i could help have a nice day<3333 ^^^**^^^desiree'^^^**^^^
Approximately 90% of earthquakes occur at or near tectonic plate boundaries. These boundaries are where the Earth's plates interact—diverging, converging, or sliding past one another—resulting in significant geological activity. The remaining earthquakes occur within tectonic plates, often referred to as intraplate earthquakes.
Of the eleven major earthquakes that occurred in the last century, only a few significant ones took place in the United States. Notable examples include the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and the 1964 Alaska earthquake. While the U.S. experiences numerous earthquakes, the majority of the most powerful ones have occurred in other parts of the world, particularly along the Pacific Ring of Fire.
Vancouver is located near the Cascadia Subduction Zone, where the Juan de Fuca Plate is subducting beneath the North American Plate. This tectonic activity creates a high potential for seismic activity, leading to earthquakes in the region.
A plate tectonic zone is where two plates collide and cause the ground to move. Living in a plate tectonic zone can be very dangerous and there is many hazards such as erupting volcanoes and many earthquakes...
Scientists found that earthquakes are not randomly distributed; instead, they occur along specific tectonic plate boundaries. This led to the development of the theory of plate tectonics, which explains how the Earth's lithosphere is divided into several large plates that are constantly moving and interacting with each other. The majority of earthquakes occur at these plate boundaries where tectonic forces create stress and lead to seismic activity.

It is impossible to tell. 2010 was a year of numerous large earthquakes around the globe. However, many smaller earthquakes occurred and many more that were too weak to be measured. It is estimated that millions of earthquakes occur each year.
I dont know Marshel
There have been many earthquakes in Armenia.
There have been 150
Because it is on a plate which is always moving
The main cause of earthquakes is when there is a sudden movement of various plate boundaries or when plates scrape against each other. Some earthquakes are also caused from old plate boundaries or faults. Many earthquakes happen at faults, such as the San Andreas Fault in California.
Oklahoma is located entirely on the North American Plate well away from any plate boundaries. The earthquakes that have been striking Oklahoma are intraplate earthquakes associated with stresses and faults in the interior of the plate.
depends if im with your mum that night
Because New Zealand is on the edge of the plate tectonics.
