So I generated a new world using the Advanced Parameters and setting the min volcanism rate to 10, max to 100 (all other parameters were default).
The result is a region where surroundings vary from Terrifying to Serene, including a whole evil ocean named The Cremated Ocean, serene Glittery Hills that stretch on nearly half of the map, mirthful mountains and sinister plains that are adjacent to the Hills. There is some space in between but most of the map is either really good or really bad.

My question is: are volcanoes the cause of this?

[SeelenJägerTee]

Nope. As far as I know volcanos have exactly 0 influence on the amount of good/evil biomes.
You probably fiddled around with the parameter controlling the amount of good/evil biomes.

perfect for embarks with reanimating biome and good biome that stops reanimation! You can have an endless training ground for your military if you build a controlled training facility at the edge of the two biomes! And you can do it in any weather/terrain since it seems you have these biomes everywhere! Don't miss your chance!

Correct.

Volcanism only controls the appearance of igneous extrusive layers, and the appearance of volcanoes.

If you want proof, I suggest that you gen a statistically significant amount of worlds (2 years of gen will suffice, since evilness and savagery are not influenced by history) with the same parameters but not the same seed.

Yep, already did this and turns out I have overrated the might of volcanoes.
Thanks for the clarification.
