Volcanoes

A volcano is a mountain that opens downward to a pool of molten rock below the surface of the earth. When pressure builds up, eruptions occur.

Volcanoes are as deadly as they seem, they are known for knocking down wntire forests, and an erupting volcano can cause tsunamis, rock slides, flash floods and earthquakes.

What causes an eruption is simillar to what causes an earthquake. The tectonic plates move and the friction caused between them causes the volcanic eruption.

Volcanoes are blamed for the destruction of entire territories troughout the ages, including a ancient roman city named Pompeia, this village was completely destroyd during the eruption of a near volcano called Visuvio.
