The Indonesian region is one of the most seismically active zones of the earth. The map on the right shows historic earthquake activity near the epicenter (star) from 1990 to present.
• a M7.9 earthquake 250 km to the south in 2007;
• a M8.4 earthquake 375 km to the south in 2007;
• and a M7.5 earthquake 260 km to the south near in 2009.

The subduction zone surrounding the immediate region of this event last slipped during the M8.6 earthquake of March 2005, and today's event (red star) appears to have occurred within the rupture zone of that earthquake.
At the location of this earthquake, the AustraliaIndian Plate moves northnortheast with respect to the Sunda microplate at a velocity of approximately 60-65 mm/yr.

A major 7.7 earthquake occurred Tuesday 205 km (125 miles) westnorthwest of Sibolga, Sumatra, Indonesia. There was widespread panic as residents rushed to higher ground. Local media report that hundreds of houses have been damaged, and there are electricity blackouts across the province. Following the earthquake, people remained out on the streets, wary of aftershocks.
Within a few years, almost the entire length of the Sumatra megathrust has ruptured:
• two M7.3 earthquakes 125 km to the north in 2002 and 2008;
• a M9.1 earthquake that ruptured to within 125 km north of this earthquake in 2004;
