The Ring of Fire is a zone where the earth unleashes some of it's greatest fury. It stretches around the Pacific ocean from southern Chile to Alaska, to New Zealand. 80% of the worlds largest earth quakes strike here as well as four out of five tsunamis. The Ring of Fire is also home to over half of the worlds active volcanos. The volcanic activity come from collision to massive tectonic plates.The largest plate is the Pacific plate plunges under other plates which allows magma to form closer to the earth's surface than normal. This makes it easier for magma to return to the surface in the form of an eruption.
