Sardinia is an island of the Western Mediterranean Basin, larger than Corsica and second in size only to Sicily, and surrounded by the Tyrrhenian and Sardinian Seas. Inland its territory is predominantly hilly and mountainous, with a group of massifs amongst which is the Gennargentu, peaking at Punta La Marmora. However, the average altitude of the Island is overall low. In the western part, the wide plains of the Campidani divide the inland massifs from the mountainous group of the Iglesiente and Sulcis. There are no major earthquake events with only seven in recorded history, the oldest of which was documented in Cagliari in 1616, whereas the most recent in 1948.
