According to Wegener, Pangaea is the term used for the joint stretch, which represents the vast United Continental part.
Division of Pangaea: division started in the Carboniferous Era. It was first divided into two parts, the northern part of which was called Angara land (Laurasia) and the southern part was called Gondwanaland. Angara land and Gondwanaland were redistributed into smaller parts in the Jurassic Era. America was divided in the Eocene Era. This division was completed by the Pleistocene Era.
