The Panthalassa Ocean surrounded Pangaea. It was the superocean that existed during the time of the supercontinent Pangaea, covering much of the Earth's surface.
'Panthalassa' was the great sea that surrounded Pangea.
Sea floor spreading contributed to the breakup of Pangaea by creating new oceanic crust at mid-ocean ridges, causing the continents to drift apart. This process resulted in the formation of the Atlantic Ocean and the separation of the once-contiguous landmass Pangaea into multiple continents.
During the time of the supercontinent Pangaea, the ocean known as Panthalassa surrounded Pangaea. Panthalassa was a vast ocean that covered most of the Earth's surface. As Pangaea broke apart, this single ocean eventually split into the modern oceans we have today.
Alfred Wegener, a German meteorologist and geophysicist, first proposed the theory of Pangaea and Panthalassa in the early 20th century. He suggested that the continents were once joined together in a supercontinent called Pangaea, surrounded by a single large ocean known as Panthalassa.
When Pangaea existed, all the Earth's continents were connected into one massive supercontinent. The landmass was surrounded by a single large ocean called Panthalassa. The climate was much different than today, with a more uniform distribution of temperatures and weather patterns across the Earth.
'Panthalassa' was the great sea that surrounded Pangea.
The Pacific Ocean developed from the Panthalassa, (the vast global ocean that surrounded Pangaea), following the breakup of Pangaea. There is no firm date for when the changeover occurred, as the replacement of the sea bed is a continuous process

There is no sea that is surrounded by Ukraine.
The Roman empire surrounded the Mediterranean Sea.
the Caribbean Sea
During the formation of Pangaea, the supercontinent, the continent that was roughly in the center was Africa. The modern-day landmasses of South America, North America, Europe, and Asia surrounded Africa as Pangaea formed.
