How have continents moved in the past?
Plate tectonics. Continents are the exposed (from the oceans) geological areas of tectonic plates. Continents can also be on top of more than one tectonic plate. When these plates move, continents move with them. Millions of years ago, continents were split apart and also created by tectonic plate movement.
