Where are the American continents being separated from the African and Eurasiann continents?
Continental drift is causing North America to separate from Europe and Africa even further, and ultimately will either connect with Asia or be unbelievably close. South America will still be connected to North America, however, it will tilt east and will look as if it is being attracted to Africa. Africa will collide into Eurasia, making one giant supercontinent once again, Afro-Eurasia [as it is called today as well].
Where are the american continents being seperated from the african and Eurasian continents?
The America continents are not truly moving in the same direction. North America is heading west and will collide into Asia. South America is tagging along with North America, although it will somewhat tilt eastwards in an upwards position, like its attracted to Africa. Africa will collide into Europe and Asia, by going north as well as northeast. Eurasia will also tilt eastwards, however, in a downwards position.
