Depiction of Rodinia at time of initial breakup.
The movements of continents prior to the formation of Rodinia are uncertain. However, the movements of continental masses since the breakup of Rodinia are fairly well understood and continue to be the subject of research. The eight continents that made up Rodinia later re-assembled into another supercontinent called Pannotia and, after that, Pangaea.
Rodinia is a Bulgarian (Rodina) and Russian word meaning "homeland", which is used in various contexts.
