Mexico is atop three tectonic plates (North American, Pacific and Cocos Plates) which are part of the so-called Ring of Fire. The Rivera Plate could also be considered as part of these, but it only touches a small portion of the sea floor in front of the Mexican Pacific, not touching the actual mainland. It is located precisely, on the subduction zone between the North America, Pacific and Cocos Plates.

the tectonic plates shake under the earth causing earthquakes
Some cities on tectonic plate boundaries include Tokyo, Japan (Pacific Plate), San Francisco, USA (Pacific Plate), Istanbul, Turkey (Anatolian Plate), and Mexico City, Mexico (North American Plate). These cities are at risk of earthquakes and other seismic activities due to their proximity to tectonic plate boundaries.

Located atop three tectonic plates (North American, Pacific and Cocos Plates), Mexico is one of the most geologically active regions of Earth. This has resulted in a varied topography, which includes the three Sierra Madre mountain ranges, the Mexican Altiplano (or Central Mexican Plateau) and the flat lands of the Yucatan Peninsula. Also, The Tropic of Cancer (23
