I actually rebuilt Doggerland on an earth map minecraft server. Even better, I got the dirt to do it by getting rid of Denmark.

I find Doggerland interesting since if it still existed. Much of the known world today could be very different. It may of meant the British empire never went and colonised much of the world.
Or it could of gave Germany in WW2 a much easier path to britain.
The UK might of become a part of France, who knows.

The existence of Pangea literally sounds like something you would see in a fictional story, such a weird thought that there was only one supercontinent.
And that supercontinent was the reason of the creation of more lost continents and lost extensions (Doggerland etc.) and now it is home to continents (Asia, Europe etc.)

My grandad lived on little Diomede as an elementary school teacher with my grandmother. He lived there during the cold war era so he had a lot of great stories. He said that he could see soviet spies looking at him if he used binoculars from across the ice, and that the natives sometime traveled across the ice and talked to the Russians, and they would sometime bring messages to each other. There was also once a polar bear that lived underneath the elementary school that needed to be driven out.

During the recent Ice age Africa, Europe, Asia, North and South America would of been technically one super continent as the lower sea level would of allowed a land bridge on the Bering Strait.

Who else noticed the joke of switching Australia's flag with the austrian one?

It would be incredible to know How history would work if these continents were real mainland today

[peppermann]

As always, brilliantly presented, narrated and drawn. I wish history was like this at my school in the 1970s. 😊👍

[MikePhoenix]

You missed Beleriand. It sunk at the end of the first age after the war against Morgoth.

[artificialascension]

Man. It's fucking wild to think about all the lost biodiversity that some of these lost continents had. All the prehistoric creatures that could have been endemic to those areas that we'd never know about because we'll never find their fossils. It's sad, almost.

[rolf-smit]

The Dutch probably already started on reclaiming Doggerland LOL.

[mrtea]

GK: *talks about Sundaland & Sahul*
Also GK: *puts austrian flag on australia*

[Stant]

When Doggerland was young, would we have called it Pupperland?





I'll see myself out.

[SaorAlba]

one point you forget millions of years ago Scotland's land mass extended beyond St Kilda, it's known known when it first submerged under the Atlantic but the sea between St Kilda and the Outer Hebrides is not much deeper than a 1, 000 metres

[francoisnaufahu]

Imagine if these Continents existed today, would been awesome

[jkgamrs]

Doggerland would be Europe, not another continent.

[adamjones]

I wouldn't exactly call Doggerland a continent, just a part of continental europe.

The Koniggratzer Marsch as the background music was a nice touch! Reminds me of World at War back in the day.
