Comment on Azores – Evacuations Begin as Seismic Crisis Unfolds in Atlanticparent

Volcanic soil is some of the best soil there is.

If you want agriculture, there's no place better than near a volcano (which is one reason for big death tolls, when they blow their tops).

I lived in Uganda, and that country is surrounded by volcanoes (I think they are all dormant). The soil is jet-black, and it is a gorgeous, lush nation.

Rwanda and Burundi too?

I think so. There's a huge fault, right up the middle of Africa. The Rift Valley is an awesome place.

I recently watched a documentary about the east rift valley. They say in a few millions of years there'll be a new ocean and Africa will divide into two.
