The crust of the Earth forms continental plates that move with the fluctuations of molten material under the crust. Continental plates separate and collide building mountain ranges and deep sea trenches. This phenomenon (plate techtonics) is what drives the ever changing landscape of the planet. It's what caused the break up of the original super continent.
