The revolution in the science of earth has been started since the early 19th century, when the emergence of a radical thought at that time to propose a hypothesis about the continents that move on the surface of the earth. Actually, the theory of plate tectonics already emerged when the idea of the Flotation hypothesis Continent (Continental Drift) was introduced first time by Alfred Wegener (1915) in his book "The Origins of Oceans and Continents". An effect of this floatation continent hypothesis is a hypothesis which assumes that the continents that exist today united formerly known as the super-continent called Pangaea. This super-continent Pangaea allegedly formed 200 million years ago which was then fragmented into pieces smaller then migrate or drifted into position as it is today.
