The Caribbean plate and the North American plate.
The North American and Caribbean tectonic plates caused the Haiti earthquake in 2010. The movement along the boundary between these two plates resulted in the devastating earthquake.
The Haiti earthquake occurred at the boundary of the Caribbean tectonic plate and the North American tectonic plate. The specific fault line responsible for the earthquake was the Enriquillo-Plantain Garden fault zone.
The tectonic hazard in Haiti was primarily due to the movement of the Caribbean and North American tectonic plates along the Enriquillo-Plantain Garden fault zone. This movement resulted in the devastating earthquake that struck Haiti in 2010, causing widespread destruction and loss of life.
Haiti's earthquake was not strong enough to produce a tsunami. The earthquake caused a lot of destruction in Haiti, but that was largely because the buildings in Haiti had not been designed to withstand earthquakes. The earthquake in Haiti had its epicentre on LAND not in the ocean. Thus there was no sea floor movement associated with the earthquake which could have produced a tsunami.
Haiti is on the boundary of two tectonic plates, the North American plate and the Caribbean plate. The shifting of these plates is what caused the massive 7 magnitude earthquake on January 12, 2010.

I think it was the Caribbean plate and the cocos plate.
The plates in Haiti moved due to the shifting of tectonic plates along a fault line called the Enriquillo-Plantain Garden fault zone. This movement resulted in the devastating earthquake that struck Haiti in 2010.
It was a conservative earthquake caused by tectonic plates under ground, that rub together to make friction.

The Haiti earthquake in 2010 was caused by movement along the Enriquillo-Plantain Garden fault zone, which runs along the border of the North American and Caribbean tectonic plates. Specifically, the earthquake was the result of a slip along a blind thrust fault within this fault zone, rather than movement between distinct tectonic plates.
By plates.

Yes, there are, though there tend to be more hurricanes than earthquakes per year.
Haiti's earthquake has effected it's future in so many ways that i think there will be more than over 100 earthquakes that will happen in the future
2 of the undersuface tectonic plates collided just under haiti. this made an earthquake. as they skraped away from each other an aftershock was made
