Summary
According to NASA - "This figure below depicts a hypothetical early Earth distribution of protocontinents which drifted by seafloor spreading until they collided into a supercontinent (Rondinia); that single supercontinent then broke up (like the later Pangaea) and its fragments made new individual continents - this process of coming together, splitting, moving in various directions over the global surface, recombining, resplitting, etc. probably has happened at least several times in Earth history."
