Poland - Plate Boundaries

  

Poland - Plate Boundaries 


Poland is apart of the Eurasian plate boundary which is one of the larger plates ! (Which makes sense because Europe + Asia are huge continents). These plates rest between the North American and African plate. Unfortunately for Poland, its west side has a divergent plate boundary. This type of plate boundary pulls away from each other and separates into 2 plates. Notably, this plate is an oceanic plate and a continental plate. This region and plate boundary are typically more active than others. Major hazards of plate boundary are volcanoes, and floods (something Poland is already relatively known for).
