Why does an earthquake happen?
Earthquakes occur as a result of the energy generated by sudden movements in the Earth's outer layer. This energy generates seismic waves on the Earth's surface, which are manifested by shaking or displacing the ground.
Earthquakes can be caused by natural phenomena or anthropogenic causes. Earthquakes are often caused by geological faults. Massive gas migration, mainly methane deep within the Earth, volcanoes, landslides, and nuclear tests are the main faults.
