Anatolian Plate

The Anatolian Plate is a continential tectonic plate consisting primarily of the country of Turkey.

The easterly side is a boundary with the Arabian Plate.

The southerly side is both a convergent boundary and a transform boundary with the African Plate to the west and the Arabian Plate to the east.

The westerly side is a convergent boundary with the Eurasian Plate as Turkey is being pushed west as it is being squeezed between the Eurasian Plate on the north and both the African Plate and the Arabian Plate on the south.

The northerly side is both a convergent boundary and a transform boundary with the Eurasian Plate forming the North Anatolian Fault Zone (NAFZ).
