Sciencia Plate Boundary Essay

Improved Essays
Sciencia is a world analogous to Eath. Based on the present day plate boundaries and similarities on multiple continents, It’s believed that the continents of Sciencia were once together as a supercontinent called Edisonia. The supercontinent held 6 of the 8 modern continents, which broke apart due to tectonic forces in the Lithosphere. Also, the 7th and 8th continents were believed to have formed from volcanic eruptions on convergent plate boundaries. The edges on the modern- day Sciencian continents have experienced weathering and erosion, which makes it hard to precisely piece them back together. The continents split apart on a divergent plate boundary near the center of the supercontinent, continuing to drift to their modern day plate boundaries. There is an abundance of evidence that suggests that the continents were once together. Marble deposits on both Keplerland and Galileosium suggest that they were once connected. Many Ridal Shears lie along the once-conjoining coasts of Keplerland and Galileosium. End Moraine and Basaltic rock connects all the continents to each other and suggests that they were near an ocean. Drumlin Fields connect all the continents except for Galileosium, Wegenerland, and the Bacon Islands. Based on the continents …show more content…
On the west coast, Einsteinia connects to Newtonia and Keplerland. In the North, Mendeleevium connecets to Hersheyland, Newtonia, and Keplerland. In the west Galileosium connects to Hersheyland and Keplerland. Finally on the South side, Keplerland connects to Einsteinia, Newtonia, Mendeleevium, and Galileosium. Many of the problems encountered were time-based including, but not limited to weathering, Erosion, and natural disasters. Natural disasters can happen within seconds and change the layout of the landforms. As scientists, unexplained changes in data must be accounted for to find an accurate

    Jared Diamond in his book Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies has gone repeatedly explaining many reasons as to why places like Eurasia and New Guinea developed so differently. The argument of chapter ten is that the shape and major axes of continents affect the distribution of crops and domesticated animals. The continents that Diamond uses is Africa, the Americas, and Eurasia. With Africa and the Americas both have their major axis that are longitude (north to south) while Eurasia has a major axis that is latitude (east to west). The Fertile Crescent is one of the places where people first domesticating plants and animals.…

    Many people who have fathers tend to look up to him, especially girls, the phrase “She’s a daddy’s girl” exists for a reason.

    Avalon was believed to have broke apart from Proto-Africa. When Baltica hit North America, the mountain range created when the Avalon and the Iapetus Ocean rocks got piled up was located in the northeast. The collision of the Northeastern part of North America and Baltica didn’t really affect the southern coast until part of Avalon called the Carolina Terrane hit the southern part. These collisions caused the rocks to be metamorphosed. North America and Baltica at this time were located near the equator and North America was moving…

    European countries began exploring and seeking to dominate the rest of the world during the 15th and 16th centuries. They had an enormous advantage with their ability to control sea routes which led to the discovery of the American continent. By the early 17th century, Spain, England, France, and the Netherlands were all fighting for colonies and trades around the world. Explorers, conquerors, missionaries, merchants, and adventurers looked to claim new lands to colonize. Competition for land grabs, settlement, trade, and exploration led the way for the growth of the “New World” domination and made way to the economic system of mercantilism.…
