How long ago did Pangaea split into continents?
The original super-continent of Pangaea broke up about 200 million years ago during the Paleozoic era forming the continents of Gondwanaland and Laurasia. Gondwanaland later fragmented into Antarctica, Africa, Australia, India and South America. Similarly, Laurasia broke up into Asia, Europe and North America. The current 7 continents have been more or less in their current positions for the past few million years.
What will happen if continents combined?
that means we would have the Pangaea again *Pangaea was the supercontinent that existed during the Paleozoic and Mesozoic eras about 250 million years ago, before the component continents were separated into their current configuration.

Shaped and positioned similarly to continents today

How do you think the earth looked like million years ago?
About 1 million years ago, the Earth's continents were in roughly their current positions, although some locations (such as the coasts of Florida and Baja California) had not yet adopted their current forms. It has been tens of millions of years (50 to 100) since the continents separated. Of course, there are Ice Ages that occur roughly 12,000 to 60,000 years apart, so that could have made the continents look quite different during one of the glaciation periods. There were ice bridges between continents and much lower sea levels. Notably, about 2 million years ago, glaciers carved out the Baltic Sea.
