Earthquakes happen as large blocks of the Earth's crust move suddenly past one another because of the force of plate tectonics. These blocks of the Earth's crust meet at cracks called faults. Sometimes those pieces do not slide smoothly past one another. ... Each year, more than a million earthquakes occur worldwide.
