The story

What Is Rise of the Continents About?

The premise of Rise of the Continents without spoilers.

The continents we see today seem permanent, but they are the broken remnants of the ancient supercontinent Pangaea. In this striking four‑part series, Professor Iain Stewart examines geological and biological clues—rocks, landscapes, and animal distributions—that show how Earth’s landmasses were formed and reshaped over millions of years.
