Some scientists, like Austrian geologist E. Suess, thought that there were two continents, Laurasia on the northern hemisphere and Gondwana on the southern hemisphere, separated by Tethys.

In about 150 Ma before recent there was only one continent called Pangea,and one ocean called Panthalassa.

Continental crusts composed mainly of granites ploughed through the oceanic crust of basalts and this drift mechanism is a fatal weakness of the theory.

The energies which drive the continents to drift were tidal forces coming from the Sun and the Moon and centrifugal force and this is the other major weak point of the theory.
