Volcanic activity (including the release of harmful gases) on the island forced the evacuation of the entire population of Miyakejima in 2000.

Japan is an archipelago of islands that are the protruding summits of a huge mountain chain formed by plate tectonics and volcanism in the northwestern Pacific Ocean.
Three major basins define the center of the island: the Nayoro Basin in the north, the Kamikawa Basin in the center, and the Furano Basin in the south, out of which rise the Yubari Mountains to the southwest, the Hidaka Range to the south and the Ishikari Mountains to the southeast.
This irregularly-shaped and mountainous island of ancient forests, hot springs, and mysterious steaming volcanoes is separated from Honshu by the narrow Kammon Strait to the north and from Shikoku to the east by the Bungo Strait.
