Earthquake - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Earthquake
In its most general sense, the word earthquake is used to describe any seismic event—whether
natural or caused by humans—that generates seismic waves. Earthquakes are caused mostly
by rupture of geological faults but also by other events such as volcanic activity, landslides, mine
blasts, and nuclear tests.
