Africa, like the other continents, is the product of continental drift. At an earlier period in the Earth's history, there was only one continent, known as Pangaea, and this broke up and formed the continents as we know them today, as a result of the force exerted on the crust by currents in the underlying magma of the mantle. The whole process is essentially random. The shape of Africa is an accident.

A rudderless boat has no direction and will just drift around aimlessly.A boat needs a rudder so it can be steered(or you might say driven) in a certain direction. As a school needs rules and regulations to get the students in a direction of some sort.
In a current-carrying circuit, a charged particle is accelerated by an electric field. It also undergoes frequent collisions with the stationary ions of the wire material. These two effects result in the very slow net motion (drift) of moving charged particles in the direction of the electric force. The drift velocity describes this motion. Average drift speed for electrons is on the order of 10-4 m/s (Young and Freedman, University Physics).
Pangaea was a supercontinent that all continents are close to each other and they where separated after 200 million years ago and started to drift in any direction in the world
Continental drift split Pangaea into smaller parts, eventually forming the globe as it is today.
Continental Drift caused pangaea to seperate.
We can prove Pangaea through the examination of contentital drift.

The Continental drift
He looked up on his Pangaea map, and figured out about the continental drift at the part of Africa, Antarctica, and Europe.

Continental Drift
According to the theory of continental drift, Pangaea drifted apart when the plates under the crust gradually drifted apart. This process happened over a matter of years.
The theory of Pangaea is called the continental drift theory. It proposes that Earth's continents were once joined together in a single large landmass that later broke apart and drifted into their current positions.
