Week 2
Germany is not one of the most hazard-prone locations in the world, but it does experience natural hazards from time to time. The most significant natural hazards in this country are floods, storms, earthquakes and extreme temperatures. Germany is located on the Eurasian plate, but is not significantly close to any plate boundaries.

Yes, the fact that there is no plate boundary near the country indicates that at least it is free of certain hazards (earthquakes, active volcanoes). If at all possible, adding a map with Germany and the plate boundaries nearby would help your post explain the post. Where is the information you posted coming from?-thanks!
