No age of discovery, no. But different genotypes would give rise to "races" anyway. That's one configuration, and a fairly recent one. there were other periods with all the land bunched together. in this map, though, the one glaring difference is there are no large islands to serve as a nucleus for a maritime power. Also, notice how sea travel doesn't seem necessary at all for most regions. maybe in the Gulf of Mexico, and to reach Russia from Canada. Everything else would seem to favor land travel until someone invents powered flight. Circumnavigating the globe doesn't seem possible, either. Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

One can easily picture someone in LA going to NYC for a week, say, then going off to Australia. I don't think this would be a useful "hidden city" flight. not even in first class. Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

Both the rotation of the Moon and its revolution around Earth takes 27 days, 7 hours, and 43 minutes. This synchronous rotation is caused by an unsymmetrical distribution of mass in the Moon, which has allowed Earth's gravity to keep one lunar hemisphere permanently turned toward Earth. I wonder if Pangea could have done the same thing between Earth and the Sun. It would be a very different world half in light and half in dark. |

Moving people from the Indian subcontinent to USA is a big part of Emirates business. Air India now has nonstops flights from New Delhi to :Chicago–O'Hare, New York–JFK, Newark, San Francisco, Washington–Dulles. They also have a nonstop from Mumbai to Newark. But the Indian government finally relented and let Emirates fly the A380 into Mumbai. Emirates is now the dominant carriers from Oceania to Europe. Emirates A380 flights from Dubai.
