Pangea was a supercontinent that existed about 335 to 175 million years ago during the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic eras. It was surrounded by a single large ocean called Panthalassa and eventually broke apart due to tectonic plate movements, leading to the formation of the continents we have today. The theory of Pangea was proposed by Alfred Wegener in 1912, based on the fit of the continents, matching rock formations, and fossil evidence.
