Was there water between Asia and North America?

North America is currently separated by the Bering Strait at the boudary of Russia and Alaska. The northern part of Asia and the northern part of North America is separated by the Arctic Ocean. It is generally believed that there was a land bridge at what is now the Bering Strait. No. The world used to be a big piece of land. The only water was the one surrounding us. But years started to pass, and slowly our big place started to erode away, and that's how we are separate now. So there is water between it now, but it wasn't always there.
