Perché ci sono così tanti vulcani e terremoti in Italia? La spiegazione geologica in 3D

Italy is a country rich in volcanoes and frequent earthquakes. But why are there so many? It all depends on the collision zone where our peninsula is located. In this video, we've created a 3D reconstruction of Italy to show you the geology of the Mediterranean region where the country is located and explain how the Apennines formed and why there are so many aligned volcanic edifices. We'll also see why the Tyrrhenian Sea is actually an ocean, not a sea, and why so many faults form throughout central and southern Italy. 00:00 Why are there so many volcanoes in Italy? 00:56 What happens when two tectonic plates collide? 01:29 The consequences of plate collisions 02:12 Are volcanoes connected? 2:54 AM The Tyrrhenian Sea Basin 3:54 AM Is the Tyrrhenian Sea an ocean or a sea?
