“I always thought Australia fit where the Indian ocean is and attached to, the sub-continent.”

I’m guessing it did at one time, there’s been two(?) or three(?) times where the earth has just had one large landmass. I recall as a kid hearing about the new theory of plate tectonics and how all the continents were once joined.

As a kid I loved looking at our globe, world book encylpedias, etc. I remember thinking that even an 8-year old kid can tell they all fit together at one point!
