Iceland shouldn’t be on this, it didn’t exist until ~20 million years ago. Pangaea broke up ~200 million years ago.
Probably lots of others, like most of Japan shouldn’t be labelled either.

I don’t know my time lines, but I thought the Great Lakes where relatively newer.

The Great Lakes were filled up by the retreating glaciers of the most recent ice age but most of the deep parts are hundreds of millions years old.

There were ancient oceans there right?
We used to collect neat fossils along Lake Michigan as kids.

Japan actually made me laugh, simply because the entire country somehow walked all the way around to the other side of the continent.

It’s in the same place relative to China and Russia. It’s not clear how much of that is because this isn’t a Mercator projection, how much of it is tectonic shift, and how much of it is questionable choices on OOP’s part. Some lat/long markers would have helped
