What would the world be like if Pangaea never split?

What would the world be like if Pangaea never split?

Everyone would be BLACKED

A lot more war and different boarders

closer and not so divided :^)

Where the fuck is East Asia?

Unrecognisable.

no humans

The center of pangaea was a desert wasteland since it was so big rainfall from the coasts could never reach the middle. So there'd be no civilizations anywhere other than the coasts.

northeast of united states

Turkey and Greece wasnt actually there. They were under water but pressure from Arabian plate and Eurasian plate lift the land up from underwater. This is why we have no oil or gas.

Huge walls and defences everywhere with regular wars occuring.

the liberals would have to find a new argument for immigrants by saying settlers aren't natives.

thats pretty badass actually
like the wilderness from runescape only real

Enormous Hurricanes and Huge dessert in the middle 80% of the land.

>Africa connected to America
>Australia connected to India
Holy shit there would be war unending if this was present day

We need a eastern wall now

Say there was plague everyone would be affected. And there would be less water based travel.

>enormous hurricanes

I remember reading once that supposedly there were continent sized hurricanes and typhoons , and the coasts of pangaea would get battered by 1000 foot tidal waves.

Not sure why the weather was so extreme back then.

if pangaea never split there would be no america

Boring non-diverse shit, bretty much earth in 100 years from now.

this map is literally retarded

are there any theories for why there was one mass of land on the planet to begin with? that seems odd, fundamentally

The emus would rule everything.

NOTHING would be the way it is now. Africans wouldn't be African because the climate wouldn't be the same, the sun would be hitting it in a different way. No country would develop the same exact cultures they have develop now because of different countries bordering them influencing their culture. The wildlife would be different due to things like interbreeding with animals in other territories. Etc

was the moon closer? probably fucked with the temperature of the earth somehow, too. biological processes from one huge water body

Really? Nobody has claimed 6k year old earth yet? kek

We would probably already have one currency, language ect. Or there would be two-three big factions/counreies.. That sounds so much cooler god damnit earth stop splitting

>considering the middle wasnt a giant desert

So fundamentally different and unrecognizable to us that it's basically pointless to think about. There wouldn't be any humans, let alone probably mammals as we know.

Wasn't the earth like really fucking frozen solid at one point?
Maybe something to do with that caused waters to rise everywhere else

There would be no humans.

there'd probably be something pretty similar though

Need more walls

Only factual posts thus far, thread is a waste of time.

sage

Civilization would evolve so fundamentally differently there's no point in discussing it.

>japan never happens
>anime is never created

Those countries would have totally different geographies. Their mountain ranges, climates, and potential for human habitation would be unrecognizable.

...

No, there's literally no reason to think this. We have literally zero idea how the fuck things would turn out beyond an extremely rudimentary low-level geological and perhaps minor climatological one. Do you know how many insanely complex independent factors and variables have to come into play to give rise to something as unique as a species like humans, or even a clade like Mammals? Changing a single factor 200 million years ago might have meant that mammals wouldn't even exist.

You know that at one point there wasnt even water on the surface, right?

The landmasses we live on are totally arbitrary. They're just bumps in the earth crust, and as the plates shift over time the bumps change. Eventually they'll be one big continent again, just takes time.

I'm thinking from the perspective of animals with large brains with appendages capable of fine manipulation. The human body is a pretty decent multitool and it's certainly possible other animals would evolve in a similar way, like with convergent evolution.

Ok then shitters what about this hypothetical
We wake up one day and suddenly all the continents have moved back into pangaea style

What happens?
How many deaths as a result?

>No Canada on the map
Perfect.

The entire human species and probably also most other mammals are completely wiped out as the weather and general living conditions quickly shifts into extremes that we're uncapable of coping with.

The only way humans could survive is if we could put together an ark-type vehicle quickly enough, and it would have to be submersible, and capable of sustaining its inhabitants indefinitely which is most likely far out of the realms of our current scientific capabilities.

white

Well maybe no one would be black if it was North enough.

Yeah I don't know if that guy is right, life can only take so many paths. It went fish, lizard, synapsid, mammal. It's possible that mammals are just inevitable if life isn't wiped out all the time

Half of the world would be desert and the other half would be steppes.

everything in the middle would be like the sahara so RIP.

along the coasts you're going to have ridiculously rainy and humid weather. think asia tier monsoons but 10x worse.

it'll be glorious.

I disagree. People could use boats on the coast like the Vikings did. There would probably be less land based travel if anything.
