Numenera is actually (mostly) set on a far future Earth in which the continents have moved to form a new ~~pangaea~~ supercontinent. It's actually way too far in the future for it to be this one, and there has been a whole bunch of continent-scale terraforming at some point, but still!
Pangea is the name of only one supercontinent. The others have other names.
I had an Archaeology prof who had a "Reunite Gondwanaland" bumper sticker on his car. I was riding with him one time when a redneck in a big truck pulled up next to us, stuck his head out of his window and yelled "yo, fuck Gondwanaland!" and roared off.
Good point! I think I saw the name "Pangaea Proxima" and forgot that they weren't all variations on that
