Laurasia and Gondwana.
When Pangaea broke apart we got continents which what we have today.
Pangaea refers to the super continent that existed before each of the pieces eventually drifted apart into the seven continents that exist today. Scientists believe Pangaea broke apart 200 million years ago.
Pangaea is actually the name of the huge continent that broke up and became the continents today. The name of the study that makes use of the concept of continental drift is plate tectonics.
Pangaea broke apart because of the movement of tectonic plates, which causes earthquakes and volcanoes.
pangaea is all the continets together and an earthquake separated them a long time ago.

all of the continents broke apart
Actually, Pangaea was all the continents smashed together. But, the two continents that broke apart after Pangaea was created were named "Gondwanaland" and "Laurasia".
The word Pangaea means entire Earth. Pangaea is the name for the supercontinent that existed about 200 million years ago. The continents broke apart and drifted into the current positions we know today.
The supercontinent is called Pangaea. It existed during the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic eras before breaking apart into Laurasia and Gondwana, which eventually formed the continents we have today.
a single landmass or supercontinent
You are thinking of Pangaea. The supercontinent that existed some 180 million years ago, before the continents started to break apart. through the process of seafloor spreading the continent fell apart and is now the coutnrys we have today.
135 million years later, Pangaea had already split into two supercontinents: Laurasia in the north and Gondwana in the south. This breakup eventually led to the formation of the modern continents we see today.
The two continents into which Pangaea first divided are Laurasia and Gondwana. Laurasia eventually formed North America, Europe, and Asia, while Gondwana formed South America, Africa, Australia, Antarctica, and the Indian subcontinent.
