Pangaea formed about 300 million years ago and began to rift about 200 million years ago.
The formation and falling apart of super continents appears to be cyclical. Pangaea is the fourth super continent in Earth's history.
Known super continents:
- Columbia (2 billion years to 1.8 billion years ago)
- Rodinia (1.1 billion years ago to 750 million years ago)
- Pannotia (600 million years ago to 540 million years ago)
- Pangea (300 million years ago to 200 million years ago)
