Italy is well known for its geographical beauty and diversity, but part of the charm of living in Italy, or on its numerous islands, is the danger that is ever present. Residents living in the shadow of Europe’s only active volcanoes go about their daily lives in spite of the looming possibility of peril.
The active volcanoes are the results of Italy’s location within a tectonic belt which is referred to as the ring of fire. It is also prone to earthquakes due to the shifting movement of tectonic plates down the spine of the country. The country has a lengthy history of destructive earthquakes and is one of the most seismically active in Europe.
