      +Algol Yes. Please do. I went to the end, full-screened this, and then used my left arrow key and the space bar to go backward in steps. It helps a lot in understanding where the current layout came from. Cities and some island names would help too. ...... If you can, could you also project drift into the future, please?

      There are some species of dinosaur that are really similar to birds (i think they're called "archaeopteryx").

      This is our current calculation. But I just intuitively think people were born during Pangaea, and spread to all the continents, before we could build boats, and before the continents split. Fo example, there's that factor, that all the inhabitants of the ancient Pangaea living in what split to Gondwana, are dark skinned. Even the South American natives in the Amazonian forests are pretty dark skinned, and I've seen some of them who had pretty similar bone structure, body shape, than with the Subsaharan Africans. But no curly hair). It's just a slight similarity - mostly they look very much like the other original natives in the Americas.
      Then in the time of separate continents, people started to divert genetically - but were still same species, which we later have noticed, being able to have childen though the parents were of different genetic backgrounds. And when we developed different means in traffic, travelling, we could cross waters, so mixing a bit the previous races - before Columbus.

    Nice work, though I wonder about a couple of things that you could improve in the next edition: 1. use a map projection that is more shape preserving, there seem to be a lot of changes that are just projection artifacts. 2. Consider how you attach the map meridian to the crust of the continents. At one point, all the continents are around the edge of the map. 3. Consider drawing in lines for major expansion, subduction and folding zones, to make it clearer where the continents are actually going and why they seem to change direction.

    • @JohnDoe-qx3zs

      Two more ideas for the new version: 1. Use capital M for Mega and a minus sign for ago, "mya" looks more like some foreign abbreviation of milliard (1E9). 2. Show the undersea parts of the plates too, as changes in water level/land altitude are not really drift, this would also imply treating the western wdge of the Americas as part of the Pacific at -0My, for example.

    I understand how they can know about how the different countries separated from the one big landmass, but how do they know about the apparent change in shapes the different countries took along the way to get to their current form? It's a very impressive video btw, thank you so much for uploading. So interesting.

    There is a supercontinent right now according to your definition of one throughout the video:
    Afro-Eurasia.

      +KingM4gnus It is.
      All you need for a huge land bridge is to close the tiny gap between Spain and Morocco, and there already is a land bridge between the two continents.
      It is a continent by definition.

      We actually have a tiny gap that connects Africa and Eurasia - the Isthmus of Suez in Egypt.

    The music makes it feel amazingly melancholic. The birth of home.
