Ethiopia sits in one of the most geologically unusual places on Earth. Instead of tectonic plates colliding, the ground here is slowly stretching apart. That stretching creates earthquakes, volcanic activity, and massive rift valleys across the country. In simple...

Finland is one of the quietest earthquake regions in Europe. Strong earthquakes are extremely rare here. But the ground beneath Finland is not completely motionless. Small earthquakes still happen because the Scandinavian crust is continuing to adjust after the Ice...

Sweden is often considered one of Europe’s most geologically stable countries. Yet earthquakes still happen here every year. Most are small, but they reveal something important: The Scandinavian crust is still adjusting after the Ice Age. Unlike countries near active...
