What is Continental Drift Theory Overview about?
The Continental Drift Theory, proposed by Alfred Wegener in 1912, suggests that all continents were once part of a supercontinent called Pangaea, which broke apart over millions of years. Evidence supporting this theory includes similar fossils found on different continents, climate mismatches, and matching rock formations and mountain ranges. The theory gained acceptance in the 1960s with the development of plate tectonics, which provided a mechanism for continental movement.
