Imagine the fucking train network we could have had!
USA if suddenly in this scenario seeing so many “brown” countries so close:
Today: Nothing but ocean in front of the US west coast.
Back then: Nothing but ocean in front of the US west coast.
Is the other half of earth just a big ocean? Or what?
No, thats where the giants live.
The following site has a similar setup: earth at different times with modern borders marked at their approximate locations. https://dinosaurpictures.org/ancient-earth#400
Sweet, is there one that does the future?
Yes, but you’ll have to be killed after you visit it

lol get rotated commies
I’ve seen a gif of this and it’s funny how India just floats its way to China.
Brazil now has at least 16 more countries on their border, and none of them speak Portuguese.
And somehow Chile didn’t lose any of its coastline.
Angola and Equatorial Guinea???
Every time I see Pangea, I have the same thought. Before I say it, I should preface that I know nothing about plate tectonics or geology or planetary physics or any other related science.
Are we sure that’s how it was? I mean the whole one continent and the rest of the globe is ocean. Is there a chance that in addition to the super continent, the planet was also way smaller? Like maybe that continent wrapped around the majority of a smaller sphere instead of just one clump on one side of the current size of the sphere.
What should we call the mysterious continent on the dark side of pangea? It should evoke an aire of mystery.
Not sure if troll, too lazy to respond just in case.
If not troll, tldr: no, the energy required would liquify (or worse) the earth.
Not trolling, just ignorant on most related sciences.
Honestly, that much continental drift (Pangea to modern geography) seems so unbelievable to me. For some reason it’s easier to wrap my head around the globe expanding from a roughly Pangea sized sphere and the cracks between the continental shelves filling with water as the sphere got bigger.
I feel like to someone who is familiar with this science, this probably sounds like me saying “Yeah, but a flat earth just makes more sense.”
Proof it was flat then too!!1
Hey, my favorite fishing spot survived!

Imagine the railroads
Reunite Russia and Alaska
I get it’s obvious but it’s still cool that the borders are still sorta the same.
