The continental drift theory of Alfred Wegener, proposed in 1912, is one of the most significant contributions to the understanding of the origin of continents and oceans.

Around 200 million years ago, Pangaea began to break apart and the continents drifted to their present positions. This theory attempted to explain not only the distribution of landmasses and oceans but also similarities in geological and biological features across different continents.
