Most earthquakes occur near faults. These faults may be strike-slip, normal, or overthrust faults; all of which cause the drift and movement of the tectonic plates below the land, creating the earthquake.
Like the sanandreas fault?
I would answer the "Ring of Fire," which is the collection of faults surrounding the Pacific Ocean. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific_Ring_of_Fire
True..many earthquakes do occur there.........thanx for the info
in places near a volcano or in places in the pacific ring of fire.
