Why Greece is seismically active
Greece accounts for a large share of Europe's seismic energy release, driven by the African plate sliding beneath the Aegean. The Hellenic Arc south of Crete is the most active zone. Greeks experience frequent small to moderate quakes, and the Aegean islands sit near faults capable of magnitude 7 events.
