Turkey earthquake reveals a new active fault zone By Wendy Zukerman An earthquake of magnitude 7.2 struck Turkey yesterday, killing more than 200 people and injuring thousands. Turkey is one of the most quake-prone countries in the world. Most of it lies on the Anatolian plate, a small wedge-shaped tectonic plate that is being squeezed westwards as the Arabian plate to the east slams into the Eurasian plate.
Turkey is a mountainous country with the highest mountain Agri (Ararat), which is 5165 metres high, close to Iranian and Armenian borders. The actual surface area of Turkey, inclusive of lakes, is 814,578 km 2, of which 790,200 are in Asia and 24,378 are located in Europe.ereal production occupies 75% of Turkey's cropland. With a wheat production (21 million tons) and barley production (9 million tons) in 1999, Turkey is one of the world's biggest wheat and barley producers.
