    We only have 250.million years to be ready for the next one.

    https://www.ncesc.com/geographic-faq/what-will-be-the-next-supercontinent/

    The next supercontinent, predicted to coalesce in approximately 250 million years, is most commonly referred to as Pangaea Ultima, though it also goes by names like Pangaea Proxima, Neopangaea, and Pangaea II.

    I really enjoy that the article continues and discusses how humans will survive in the middle of the continent. Dinosaurs were killed 65 million years ago. Modern Humans won’t be a thing.

      Sorry to burst your bubble here pal, but I’ve been alive for almost three decades in a row and haven’t died once. Judging by that, I’m pretty sure I’ll still be here in 250 million years.

        Not just alive, but with proper data extrapolation, there should be one more of you every almost 30 years.

        There will be millions of you around by then!

      Define human. Yes modern humans aka homosapiens are extinct long before Pangea Dos, but there is still a chance there will be a new species of humans by then. The age of the Dinosaurs lasted 190 million years. The age of Humans could last just as long if not longer. If humans can survive and advance the next 100,000 years they would have the tech to mitigate any mass extinction event.

    If Pangaea was administered by Americans they’d be all like “yeah but it’s just too big for trains!”.

    We regret to inform that all trains will be running behind schedule because an overworked stegosaurus jumped in front of the 8 AM express.

    I wonder how long the fastest bullet train that exists now will take to traverse Pangaea from one end to the other.

      At its widest point, Pangea was approximately 16k km across. The fastest bullet train travels at 603km/h, so it would take approx. 26,5 hours to travel from one end to the other. This does assume a perfectly straight rail and no acceleration time though, so in practice it would take a little bit more time than that.

      Which game? My favorite was civ 3 because you could place railroad on the majority of tiles in your territory and make movement cost 0.

      I liked declaring surprise wars and moving my entire army across the map in an instant.

        Civ 3 was my first civ. I loved putting like a 100 units on the same tile.

        I was thinking of civ 6 specifically though.
