EurasianPlate

The Eurasian plate is the tectonic plate that covers Eurasia, the combination of Europe and Asia. It is the 3rd largest tectonic plate in the world! The colliding of this plate and the Indian plate formed the Himalayas. The easterly side is a boundary with the North American Plate to the north and a boundary with the Philippine Plate to the south and possibly with the Okhotsk Plate and the Amurian Plate. The southerly side is a boundary with the African Plate to the west, the Arabian Plate in the middle and the Indo-Australian Plate to the east. The westerly side is a divergent boundary with the North American Plate forming the northernmost part of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, which is straddled by Iceland. The famous earthquake that hit Nepal in 1933 killed thousands and destroyed a lot of property in Nepal and northern India. Several earthquakes have occurred after that. Colton- The Eurasian Plate (and all others) came from the Gondwanaland Plate. Comments by Others: Sources
