-> some 30 million years later, the supercontinent began to split into Laurasia and Gondwana.
Laurasia : Today part of Europe (without the Balkan Peninsula), Asia (without the Indian subcontinent and the Arabian subcontinent), North America. The name is a portmanteau of Laurentia (North America) and Eurasia.

The Mesozoic Era is the era of Earth's geological history, lasting from about 252 to 66 million years ago, comprising the Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous Periods. It is characterized by the dominance of archosaurian reptiles such as the dinosaurs, and of gymnosperms such as cycads, ginkgoaceae and araucarian conifers; a hot greenhouse climate; and the tectonic break-up of Pangaea. The Mesozoic is the middle of the three eras since complex life evolved: the Paleozoic, the Mesozoic, and the Cenozoic. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesozoic
