San Francisco is very close to a fault, or a place where 2 tectonic plates meet and push against each other. When these plates shift it causes seismic activity, or strong waves of force. These waves of force are so strong that they move and shake the earth, these are called tremors, and they turn are what you feel during an earthquake. When more shakes are felt, the energy released is called an aftershock. What caused the San Francisco earthquake was the shifting of tectonic plates. I hope I helped you learn! brainliest would be much appreciated because I am trying to rank up!!

How did measures such as the Treaty of Balta Liman affect growth within the Ottoman Empire in the 19th century?
madreJ [45]
The 1838 Treaty of Balta Limani, or the Anglo-Ottoman Treaty, is a formal trade agreement signed between the Sublime Porte of the Ottoman Empire and the United Kingdom. The trade policies imposed upon the Ottoman Empire, after the Treaty of Balta Limani, are considered to be some of the most liberal, open market, settlements that had ever been enacted during the time. The terms of the treaty stated that, the Ottoman Empire will abolish all monopolies, allow British merchants and their collaborators to have full access to all Ottoman markets and will be taxed equally to local merchants.[1] These agreements did not constitute an equal free trade arrangement, as The United Kingdom still employed protectionist policies on their agricultural markets.
