  • The borders might be made up but the land is real. Why isnt France in South America.

    Look at Africa. Even more suspicious. Apart from Madagascar, 100% of African countries are next to each other.

  • not sure if srs

    Ignoring countries because they have nothing to do with the land itself, at one stage all land on earth was probably stuck together in one mass. This broke up due to tectonic movements over millennia and have become positioned where they are today. The coast lines are not edges of anything, they are only where the land mass is high enough that it is above sea level.

  • Because of the rotation of the Earth's disk, centrifugal force pushes the continents (which float on the sea) inward towards the centre. With the help of aliens, early people had some ability to steer their continents through the construction of "sails" (the pyramids), so all the Africans decided to converge at one point of the disk, Europeans another, etc.
