∙ 14y agoSo far, the Tertiary period of the Cenezoic Era has been the longest. We are currently in the Quaternary period of the Cenezoic Era.

Which is the oldest geologic period?
The earliest geological period is known as the Precambrian. This is a very long period of time which begins about four and a half billion years ago, with the formation of the Earth, ending at the beginning of the Cambrian Era which is about 541 million years ago. So the Precambrian is about four billion years long, longer than all other eras combined.
what is the longest and oldest era of earths history?
The Longest Era of Earths History is Paleoproterozoic Eralasting 900 million years.The largest unit of time in relation to Earth's history is the super-eon. Super-eons are divided into eons. Eons in turn are divided into eras, eras are divided into periods, periods into Epochs and Epochs in Ages.Precambrian Super-Eon (4,600 - 542 Ma)Hadean Eon (4,600 - 3,800 Ma)Archean Eon (3,800 - 2,500 Ma)Eoarchean Era (3,800 - 3,600 Ma)Paleoarchean Era (3,600 - 3,200 Ma)Mesoarchean Era (3,200 - 2,800 Ma)Neoarchean Era (2,800 - 2,500 Ma)Proterozoic Eon (2,500 - 542 Ma)Paleoproterozoic Era (2,500 - 1,600 Ma)Mesoproterozoic Era (1,600 - 1,000 Ma)Neoproterozoic Era (1,000 - 542 Ma)Modern Super-Eon (542 Ma - Now)Phanerozoic Eon (542 Ma - now)Paleozoic Era (542 -251 Ma)Mezozoic Era (251 - 65 Ma)Cenozoic Era (65 Ma - Now)
The longest era lasting about 4 billion years was what era?
The Precambrian Super-Eon is the informal name for the time on earth before the Cambrian Period. It lasted from 4,576 millions years ago until 542 million years ago, about 4.034 billion years.No geological era lasted as long. The longest era was the Paleoproterozic Era(2,500 - 1,600Ma) which lasted 900 million years.

Is the Precambrian time the longest or shortest part of Earth's history?
The Precambrian time period is the longest time period of Earth's history.Looks like we have the same worksheet in school :)
Is the Mesozoic Era the longest?
The answer is NOOOO!!!! It is not the longest Era!!! The Precambrian consisted of the Archean and Proterozoic Eras which each pull roughly 2 billion years of geologic time making up the first 4 billion years of Earth. The Archean from 4.5 Billion Years Ago to about 2.5 BYA and the Proterozoic from 2.5 BYA to about 570 MYA. The Paleozoic which preceded the Mesozoic lasted about 345 Million years (570 MYA- 225 MYA) and the Mesozoic lasted about 215 Million years (225 MYA- 65 MYA).

How is the order from longest to shortest of era period epoch eon?
The Hadian Eon (4576.2 to 4000 Million years) has not been subdivided into recognised Era's. The named Era's from oldest to newest are. Eoarchean Era (4,000 to 3,600 Ma) Paleoarchean Era (3,600 to 3,200 Ma) Mesoarchean Era (3,200 to 2,800 Ma) Neoarchean Era (2,800 to 2,500 Ma) Paleoproterozoic Era (2,500 to 1,600 Ma) Mesoproterozoic Era (1,600 to 1,000 Ma) Neoproterozoic Era (1,000 to 542 Ma) Paleozoic Era (542 to 251 Ma) Mesozoic Era (251 to 65.5 Ma) Cenozoic Era (65.5 Ma to Now)
Which period of Earth's time would be considered the longest?
The period of Earth's time that would be considered longest is the Precambrian Era.
