The earths crust is broken up into several large pieces that are refered to as plates. The plates carry continental (land), oceanic (under sea) or both kinds of crust. When oceanic crust ages a subduction develops. (See Subduction Explained.) Subductions may cause tsunmais. If two like kinds of crust collide (in slow motion over millions of years) the edges of the plates heave and crumble. Such events create mountain ranges and
 
The movement of the tectonic plates often coupled to volcanic activity cause massive pressure and may cause shifts and slippage of the plates against, over or under each other.
 
The plates are in constant movement and that movement creates earthquakes.
