Pangaea got its name because Pangaea was a supercontinentthat used to exist during the late Paleozoic eras, forming about what "scientists" say three million years ago...However, the earth is only about 6,000 years old so wherever scientists got that theory from....who knows? I don't think that supercontinents are real and that there was a paleozoic era...This is what my school lesson says.....I hope someone has a better answer than this because it is far from true.
