Pangaea (Pangæa, all earth) was the latest of several supercontinents that existed during the prehistoric periods on Earth. It formed about 300 million years ago, then began to rift about 200 million years ago, creating the current continents.
Wegener named the supercontinent Pangaea, which is derived from the Greek words "pan" (meaning all) and "gaea" (meaning Earth). He chose this name to signify that all the Earth's landmasses were once joined together as one giant continent.
The supercontinent is called Pangaea. It existed around 335 million years ago and broke apart to form the continents we have today.
Geographers refer to the single landmass that they believe existed in the distant past as "Pangaea." This supercontinent is thought to have gradually broken apart into the continents we recognize today due to the movement of tectonic plates.
The term "Pangaea" comes from Ancient Greek, meaning "all lands." It was coined to describe the supercontinent that existed about 300 million years ago when all the Earth's landmasses were joined together as one gigantic landmass.

Alfred Wegener called the large supercontinent that once existed Pangaea.
The supercontinent that existed 250 million years ago is called Pangaea, and the ocean that surrounded it is known as Panthalassa.

Great is a judgement call and you are the judge. There are diamond mines on every continent on earth, except on the Antarctic continent.

You can call Antarctica the highest, driest, windiest, darkest, and coldest continent on earth.
The ancients used to call Antarctica Terra Australis, which means "Southern Land." Nobody is certain if the ancients ever saw the continent or not before the 19th century, but they had stories that such a land existed.
The theory is that there was a super continent called Pangea, meaning 'all lands'. It existed as one large continent but later broke up into several smaller continents which drifted away from wach other, each beuibg a part of a mobile plate of the lithosphere
