Panama is primarily located on the Panama tectonic plate, which is a small tectonic plate situated between the larger Caribbean and Nazca plates. This region is geologically active due to the interactions between these plates, leading to seismic activity and the formation of mountain ranges. The tectonic setting also influences the biodiversity and geography of Panama, including the Isthmus of Panama, which connects North and South America.
