The region is defined by Romeral Fault System, Bucaramanga Nest, and the risk level is classified as High (Andean region). With a population of 52 million, understanding local seismic hazards is crucial.
Colombia lies on Nazca, Caribbean, and South American plates interaction. The movement of these plates builds up stress, which is released as earthquakes. In subduction zones, one plate dives beneath another, generating some of the largest quakes on Earth. In some regions, strike‑slip faults produce frequent moderate earthquakes.
