You need to also place all the islands some lands changed by erosion others by earthquakes tsunamis covered lands and volcanoes gave land
In the beginning all the continents of the Earth were joined together to form 'Pangaea' . This large piece of land was then divided into current continents . The Pangaea started to separate about 10 billion years ago .
by the wegner theory that seafloor spreading is going on
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.
Continental drift explains how the continents have moved in the past and how they will move in the future; continents are constantly moving, although, obviously at slow rates.
The two supercontinents present today are America and Afro-Eurasia. However, they did not derive exactly from Pangea. The continents today did not come into place until about 50 million years ago.
That it split apart into the current continents.

Pangaea was made up of the current major continents on Earth, where they were once combined in one continent.

The breakup of Pangaea, in other words - the current theory.
The word Pangaea means entire Earth. Pangaea is the name for the supercontinent that existed about 200 million years ago. The continents broke apart and drifted into the current positions we know today.
No, Pangaea was the continent that existed when all the current continents were connected. It lasted from about 300 million years ago until about 150 million years ago.
Continental drift explains how the continents have moved in the past and how they will move in the future; continents are constantly moving, although, obviously at slow rates.
It is commonly accepted that the continents have not always been in their current locations. They are thought to have all been part of a super continent known as Pangaea.
It was called Pangaea - from the Greek words pan (entire) and Gaia (Earth)
Pangaea, also known as the Supercontinent, is the land mass that may have existed at about 250 million years ago. It was a single land mass that consisted of all of the continents, which have since drifted to their current positions. The idea of Pangaea was first proposed by Alfred Wegener. Evidence pointing to the existence of Pangaea includes similarities in fossils and rocks on continents which are now far away and that the coastlines of some of today's continents appear to fit together like puzzle pieces.
