Avalonia developed as a volcanic arc on the northern margin of Gondwana. It eventually rifted off, becoming a drifting microcontinent. The Rheic Ocean formed behind it, and the Iapetus Ocean shrank in front. It collided with the continents Baltica, then Laurentia, and finally with Gondwana, ending up in the interior of Pangea. When Pangea broke up, Avalonia’s remains were divided by the rift which became the Atlantic Ocean.
Kafou in Avalonia imagines a world where the landmass remained connected and civilisation took a more integrated path.
