  Clinton Goveas :: Wikipedia Reference
Pangaea or Pangea (derived from Παγγαία, Greek meaning 'all earth') is the name given to the supercontinent that is believed to have existed during the Paleozoic and Mesozoic eras, before the process of plate tectonics separated each of the component continents into their current configuration.
In configuration, Pangaea is believed to have been a C-shaped landmass that spread across the equator.
Pangaea is believed to have broken up about 180 million years ago (mya) in the Jurassic Period, first into two supercontinents (Gondwana to the south and Laurasia to the north), thereafter into the continents as we understand them today.

Pangaea, assuming this cycle of separation and rejoining has no prior cycles, was the first structure.
Given about 500 million years from Pangaea to Pangaea Ultima, this allows for as many as 7 cycles of continental diaspora and reunion since the Moon was formed.
There is another answer to Pangaea breaking up, namely that the earth was once on the order of between 60 to 70 percent smaller than it is today, had one solid land mass that 200 mya broke apart due to expansion.

In Ultima 2 you could travel to all nine planets of the solar system, time travel into the past so far back before the time of the dinosaurs and visit Pangaea (the super-continent), or even head into the future.
It's just around the time of Ultima 3, 4, and 5 that to create a successful game, you couldn't be a jack of all genres, and have great graphics, sound, etc. There are tradeoffs.
And as Ultima 8 got into scheduling trouble, as every Ultima always did, rather than make a decision as we had in the past to hold the game until it was polished, we began to cut things out to stay on schedule.

The short "abstract" of the article you cited was very interesting but if you notice it only referrs to Pangaea 300 mya and on: no reference to their supposed h hypothetical "three billion years, in a process known as the supercontinent cycle." I think this is pure spectulation - no proof, no evidence.
Pangaea started to breakup about 40-50 million years later (~275 mya) into the continents we have today.

Single land mass, made up of all the present continents, believed to have existed between 300 and 200 million years ago; the rest of the Earth was covered by the Panthalassa ocean.
Pangaea split into two land masses – Laurasia in the north and Gondwanaland in the south – which subsequently broke up into several continents.
These then moved slowly to their present positions (see plate tectonics).

Two hundred and fifty million years ago the landmasses of Earth were clustered into one supercontinent dubbed Pangaea.
But the present-day continents will continue to converge during the next 250 million years (Ma) to form another mega-continent: Pangaea Ultima, according to Dr Christopher Scotese, of the University of Texas (Arlington).
At that point, most of the world's landmass would be joined into a super-continent called "Pangaea Ultima." The collision might also trap an inland ocean, Scotese said.
