The Paleozoic Era spans approximately 541 million to 252 million years ago, making it about 289 million years in length. It is characterized by significant geological, climatic, and biological changes, including the emergence of diverse marine life, the colonization of land by plants and animals, and the development of early amphibians and reptiles. The era is divided into six periods: Cambrian, Ordovician, Silurian, Devonian, Carboniferous, and Permian. The Paleozoic Era ended with the largest mass extinction in Earth's history, the Permian-Triassic extinction event.
