Georgia is seismically active, located on the collision zone between the Arabian and Eurasian plates. The 1991 Racha earthquake (M7.0) killed over 200 people and caused severe damage in the Caucasus region. Major faults include the Greater Caucasus thrust, the Adjara-Trialeti fault, and the Javakheti fault. Notable quakes include 2019 M6.0, 2002 Tbilisi (M5.5), 1991 Racha (M7.0). The seismic risk is moderate to high. Tectonically, Georgia lies on the Arabian-Eurasian collision zone, with active thrust faults in the Greater Caucasus and volcanic-related seismicity in the south. This page provides real‑time USGS data and historical context for Georgia.

The region is defined by Greater Caucasus thrust, Adjara-Trialeti fault, Javakheti fault, and the risk level is classified as Moderate to High. With a population of 3.7 million, understanding local seismic hazards is crucial.
Georgia lies on Arabian Plate colliding with Eurasian Plate. 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.

The strongest recorded earthquake in Georgia was the 1991 Racha earthquake (M7.0). 1991 Racha (M7.0)
Georgia experiences low to moderate seismic activity, with occasional felt earthquakes, according to USGS historical data.
The most recent major earthquake in Georgia was the 2019 earthquake (M6.0). 2019 M6.0
Yes. Georgia is crossed by Greater Caucasus thrust, Adjara-Trialeti fault, Javakheti fault, making it prone to seismic activity. The seismic risk level is classified as Moderate to High.
Drop, cover, and hold on. Stay away from windows, and if outdoors, move to an open area. After the shaking stops, check for injuries and be ready for aftershocks. Prepare an emergency kit with water, food, first aid, and a flashlight.
