1. There are three layers of earth-crust, mantle and core.
2. The earth's crust is not a solid stable mass but is made of several large and many smaller plates that floats on viscous mantle.
3. These plates are constantly trying to move relative to each other.
4. As a result massive pressure builds up between them, which causes an earthquake.
