This region does sit right on a tectonic plate, so they're pretty frequent and not usually that bad. It's the second one I've experienced since being here, the first was last year. Didn't feel any in the southern areas of Armenia though.

That makes sense. It's the same in my country (the Philippines). There are times when it's stronger than usual, so every time we feel some shaking, we tend to worry about which area was affected and how strong it is.
