The four main layers of the Earth are:

  1. Crust: The uppermost layer of the Earth, also the thinnest. This is made up of our soil, we stand and walk on it.
  2. Mantle: The second layer of the Earth, also the largest. It is mostly solid.
  3. Outer Core: The third layer of the Earth, it is the only liquid layer.
  4. Inner Core: The last land most innermost layer of the Earth. This is a solid layer and is very hot.
