That's what geography looked like during the Pennsylvanian Period

During the Pennsylvanian Period...

 

  • Siberia collides into Laurussia, forming Laurasia

  • Plate tectonics caused Laurasia to collide with Gondwana; therefore, closing the Tethys Sea

  • Laurasia and Gondwana are fused together with the Appalachian-Hercynian Orogeny

  • The Alleghenian Orogeny was formed by the collision of North America and Africa

  • The eastern part of the Eurasian plate joined together with Europe, forming the Ural Mountains

  • Pangaea begins to slowly form
