thumb|270x270px|Map of Pangaea around 250 million years ago, at the beginning of the Triassic Pangaea or Pangea ( ) was a supercontinent that existed during the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic eras. It assembled from the earlier continental units of Gondwana, Euramerica and Siberia during the Carboniferous period approximately 335 million years ago, and began to break apart about 200 million years ago, at the end of the Triassic and beginning of the Jurassic. Pangaea was C-shaped, with the bulk of its mass stretching between Earth's northern and southern polar regions and surrounded by the s
Pangaea was a supercontinent that formed around 335 million years ago from the merger of earlier continents and began breaking apart about 200 million years ago, eventually creating the continents we see today. Understanding Pangaea helps explain why the continents fit together like puzzle pieces, why similar fossils and rock formations appear on distant continents, and how Earth's geography and life have changed dramatically over geological time.
