geology, a supercontinent is the assembly of most or all of Earth's continental blocks or cratons

to form a single large landmass.[1][2][3] However, some earth scientists use a different
definition: "a grouping of formerly dispersed continents", which leaves room for interpretation
and is easier to apply to Precambrian times,[4] although a minimum of about 75% of the
continental crust then in existence has been proposed as a limit to separate supercontinents from
other groupings.[5]

Supercontinents have assembled and dispersed multiple times in the geologic past (see table).
According to modern definitions, a supercontinent does not exist today.[1] The supercontinent
Pangaea is the collective name describing all of the continental landmasses when they were most
recently near to one another. The positions of continents have been accurately determined back
to the early Jurassic, shortly before the breakup of Pangaea (see animated image).[6] The earlier
continent Gondwana is not considered a supercontinent under the first definition, since the
landmasses of Baltica, Laurentia and Siberia were separate at the time.[4]
