yes, he believed the continents were once joined together it was called Pangaea
His theory was that a long time ago, the continent were all one supercontinent, Pangea, and that they have since drifted apart.
Alfred Wegner's theory of continental drift stated that the continents were all once together but over time have drifted apart.
In the 1960's scientists uncovered new evidence that seemed to support Wegener's theory.
Africa has not always been near the equator, long ago when Wegener made an hypothesis that earths landforms were once all one landmass called Pangaea. When Pangaea was a whole, Africa was more near the poles than where it is located now.
Scientist rejected Wegners hypothesis of continental drift at first because he did not have enogh evidence to support his theory. He failed to provide a suitable mechanism that could cause the continents to move.
His theory was that a long time ago, the continent were all one supercontinent, Pangea, and that they have since drifted apart.
Wegener was ignored for so long because no scientists believed him about his theory of continental drift. No scientists believed him because he couldn't explain how the continents had moved until the time of Harry Hess or J. Tuzo Wilson.

how long did it take Alfred Nobel to make dynmite
In the 1960's scientists uncovered new evidence that seemed to support Wegener's theory.
Alfred the Great became king in 871 to 899 (long long ago)
millons of years
Alfred Piccaver was born on February 24, 1884, in Long Sutton, England, UK.
They were connected 2000 years ago
Alfred Deakin did not lead the Liberal party. He led the Protectionist party, which no longer exists.
No, they are separate islands, but they are connected by several bridges and tunnels.
Alfred Wegener proposed the theory of continental drift based on the observation of similar fossil and geological evidence on separate continents, matching coastlines, and the fit of continents like puzzle pieces. He suggested that continents were once part of a single landmass called Pangaea, which slowly drifted apart due to continental movement.
