So here I am experimenting with a new continental map a continental drift Map. after a recent critiquing on a recent map I d3ecided to experiment with the continental rift feature before atympting to reverse rift past maps.
So here I have an unnamed world how it's mega continent changed into several other continents down the line.
I didn't want to go with the generic billions of years jazz so I made up the word Choom. Haven't quite estimated how much a Choom measures in Years yet, but it's to give that alianated feeling where this is obviosly a foreighn world.
My best excuse is it's a vertual realm that simulat a world that opperates on evolution and other popular scientific belieths. I won't say fact of theroy as either will cause people dispeasure so popular belieth is a nice neutral statement that I think everyone can atleast agree on.
As you can see the continents over the  Chooms have broken apart and drifted acrooed the unseen globe and show up in differant positions and eventualy run into other continents thus tradeing land masses at one point as can been seen around at the 90 Choom mark  Again I have not yet estimated the Measure ment of a Choom but it is not emediatly something like a million year or Billion year span. However I will leav you all to try and debate the Measurement for yourselves.
You howerer may have to pay verry close attention to where all the pieces lay By the way the Choom Estimate how mutch time has passed since the formation of the first large continent. The number of each step does not real say how many chooms after the last formation but realy how much time has passed since the first recorded one. So entrestingly enough if we were to measure between the drifts the second formation after the first recorded formation would be 20 Chooms. the 65 mark would be 35 Chooms after the 30 mark. and the 90 mark is 25 Chooms after the 65 mark.
 in theI regret changeing the sizes in order to fit everything in because I think I acidently squashed the shape of the second formation in the 30 Chooms mark.

Anyways I feel this would be more of an atympted simulation and if one could enter the vertaul World they might be able to travle between and to the differant periods of time.
1.What do think Life is like on each of these time periods?
2.What do you think the measuremant of time is for a Choom?
3. what would a fith formation look like?
4. what steps will I need to make inorder to perfect the drift map technique?
5. How doe one reverse a dirft map and bring differant land masses of differant shapes to creat a single shape? (Clearly one would have to take these said shapes and warped them over time and take them apart. I think if you have a map where you can' tell these lands were once one could eather mean time has realy worked hard to make the land masses feel more alian, Or these Continents has formed Sepr

Looks great, i personally won't ever do this kind of map for my world(Would be way to hard for me to just toss all the current landmass together and move them around) but yours looks great :D
