Given the time line and the possible seabed structure of the area in question, It could be supposed that there may have been some other area of dry land? General ideas of gyro dynamics and balance say that the earth could not have maintained its spin and solar course if there were nothing on the other side of Pangaea to balance things out some.
Mainstream science will barely even speak of what was directly opposite Pangaea to my knowledge, they just don't know!! I have the feeling that if posed with the question most modern day scientists would try to put the hush hush on the whole thing saying; "Nothing but water. Why do you ask?" or something to the effect of how my college professor put the mystery of black holes back in the 70's " Don't let it bother your scholastic career with such ideas. Think on them for an hour and then get on to what we know." It was a cop out then and I assume nothings changed. Perhaps it was the site of a massive meteor strike that caused the break up of the super continent in the first place? Who knows? But given that this is an area covering more than 3/4 of the planet at the time, you'd think that they (modern scientists) would be more interested!!? It is unfortunately they are not.
There definitively was a Pangaea. Pangaea implies one continent. Back when the earth was forming, there was no oceans, thus the whole earth would be referred to as Pangaea. Today continents would refer to how much land is above the ocean.
Pangea no longer exists, so you can't ask 'How big IS Pangea?' Pangea incorporated the whole land mass of earth.
Pangea was the original landmass of Earth so it was probably formed when Earth formed.
Pangaea was when the earth's entire land mass was one mass - no "separate" countries. That last occurred about 250 million years ago (it is believed to have happened several times over earth's history). From Pangaea, the landmass separated gradually into the various continents we have today.

Pangaea is from the Earth. It was always there
pangaea, pan-gaea, pan- meaning ''all'' and gaea meaning ''earth,land''
Pangaea was like that when the earth was created by the BIG BANG
Pangaea gets its name because it's a greek word for "all Earth".
Pangaea is a "SUPPER CONTINENT" THIS WAS THE EARTH LIKE 250 MILLIONS years ago. Pangaea was separated, because all of the natural causes of the earth. :)

On Earth...

Actually according to my scientific calculations Pangaea means all Earth toghether.So 1 because at the time it was Pangaea all the land masses were together.

When Earth was one big continent.
