Goode Equal Area
All seven continents are surrounded by water to some extent.
Approximately 300 million years ago, the Earth's continents were joined together in a supercontinent known as Pangaea. Over time, Pangaea split apart to form the continents as we recognize them today.
A world map or globe would be the best tool for seeing the sizes of Earth's continents. Both provide a visual representation of the size and shape of continents in relation to one another.
Yes, the Earth's continents have shifted over millions of years due to plate tectonics. This movement has resulted in the formation of supercontinents, such as Pangaea, which eventually broke apart to form the continents we see today.
About 335 million years ago, Earth's continents were connected in a supercontinent known as Pangaea. Over time, Pangaea broke apart into separate landmasses that eventually drifted to their current positions.
The most accurate way to show Earth's continents is using a map projection that minimizes distortions, such as the Winkel Tripel projection or the Robinson projection. These projections aim to balance shape, area, distance, and direction, providing a more accurate representation of the continents compared to other types of projections.
Projection
the earths continents are the same ..
The Mercator Projection, developed by Flemish geographer Gerardus Mercator, was widely used as the standard two-dimensional projection of the earth for world maps until the late 20th century, when more accurate projections were formulated. Mercator was also the first to use and popularize the concept of the atlas as a collection of maps.

Continents drift on top of the upper mantle. The core is much further down.
No the continents are.

no before humans appeared the continents were all smooshed together
