A short animation about how a continent splits up into a continental rift valley and later into an open ocean by sea floor spreding, and finally the closure of the ocean by subduction and consequent build up of an orogenic belt by the collision of geosynclinal sediments.

  • Not the longest animation ever but it does the trick. What is wrong with everyone who thinks this is not true, it's fact it moves at 1cm on average a year, it's been proven by measures taken between the rifts and also tested the age of the basalt rocks, anyway it's pretty basic, every schoolchild knows this, well unless you are American.
