      They used to be together, before the asteroid hit that wiped out the dinosaurs. Then, the continents split.

        Just like the previous Lemming, this still doesn’t explain what the joke is to me. What’s that got to do with communism?

          I suppose it’s the “we ised to be together, it used to be our continent, now we’re separated”.

            Yeah and it might have something to uniting continents with Communism ( or Sino- Russian imperialism) as in the end you see the Hammer and the Sickle.

        The split of Gondwana has nothing to do with the asteroid that whiped out dinosaurs. It startet to split way before the impact. The asteroid hit the earth ~66 million years ago, but Gondwana already startet to split ~150 million years ago.

        The continent split because of the drift of the tectonic plates

          Yeah, I know it started to drift because of the shift of the tectonic plates, but didn’t know that the drift started happening before the asteroid impact. I thought the impact triggered the shift.

          Thanks for the info 👍 ☺️.

          Unrelated, but when I was a kid I thought China and Japan were a united land mass until WW2 when we nuked Japan, then it floated off into the ocean. This reminded me of that a little bit
