Alfred Wegener hyphothesised that Pangaea broke up into two large landmasses called Laurasia and GondwanaLand. The present-day North America, Greenland, and all of Eurasia were a part of Laurasia. The present-day South America, Africa, Madagascar, the Indian subcontinent, Arabia, Malaysia, East Indies, Australia, and Antarctica were a part of the Gondwanaland.
