The reason for continental drift.
Official group of the Institute of Earth Sciences of SFedU https://vk.com/inozsfedu

The earth's crust, at the initial stages of its evolution, was a hot magma, the poles of which, after a decrease in axial velocity and as a consequence of the earth's geological activity, began to cool.
Further, the cooled magma in the form of continents, under the action of centrifugal forces, began to drift from the poles to the equator.
Then, the continents, floating on hot magma, under the influence of the western transfer of the atmosphere moved from west to east - like an iceberg in the ocean.
The area of the continents of the Southern Hemisphere is much smaller than the Northern Hemisphere, due to the fact that not all of Antarctica moved to the equator.
Perhaps Antarctica did not leave the pole due to the early and high geological activity of the continent. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iceberg
Once the crust formed at the Earth's poles, magmatic gases began to accumulate under the crust, resulting in increased buoyancy, mobility, and geological activity of the continents. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pumice
The rate of continental drift depends on the axial and orbital velocity of the Earth, the tilt of the axis and orbit, nutation, precession, and oblateness of the Earth. https://simple.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblate_spheroid
Perhaps, it is not the tidal force that moves the continents from the poles to the equator, but the polar-fugitive force. (Polfluchtkraft). https://www.gemp.ru/article/11.html
The constant polar southern and northern winds also contribute to the continental drift.
And today, polar winds, reaching tens of kilometers per hour, move huge icebergs towards the equator. https://meteoinfo.ru/ugryumov/2927-ugryumov-polus
During the formation of the continents, ocean basins were also formed, in which water began to collect as the earth cooled. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continental_drift
At the dawn of the formation of the earth's crust, when the axial velocity and geological activity of the earth were much higher, sediments carried by ocean currents could settle near groups of volcanic islands.
And the higher the axial velocity of the earth, the higher the speed of movement of water and air masses, nutation, precession, whirlpools and the higher the turbidity of the water.
Whirlpools, having the properties of a gyroscope, could also participate in the formation of continents and oceans. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Pacific_Garbage_Patch

It is possible that Australia, moving from west to east, also "rotated" around its axis. https://www.waponline.it/australias-antarctic-aerodrome-cancelled/

The Arctic also moved south and as a result was divided into two continents - Eurasia and North America, which formed the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans.
Further, moving south, Scandinavia fell behind Eurasia, resulting in the appearance of the Baltic Sea.
Also, Victoria Island separated from North America.
I believe that North America, Baffin Island, Greenland and Scandinavia were all close together when they moved towards the equator.

The arctic what?

"The Arctic" is a region, not a landmass - and it's not very well-defined region at that. There is nothing to move south, nevermind creating continents.

The only thing named artic is the arctic ocean. And it's an ocean.

Do you ever explain your rationale for these wild ideas? I'm not askng for evidence, that's too much to ask, I just wonder what thoughts cause you to arrive to these ideas.

I think it will be much more informative this way.

Point of order: You have inadvertently attributed the above passage to me in the quote. I did not say of any those things.

It is believed that the Earth is rotated by the western transfer of the atmosphere.
Therefore, it can be assumed that the Earth's crust rotates on magma.

No. You said "The Arctic moved south".

"The Arctic" is not a "thing" that can move. It is a region loosely defined by mapmakers when making maps.

You are right, the Arctic is an ocean. And what I meant was that there used to be a continent at the North Pole, and I called it the Arctic.
I later edited this post, and I think it all makes sense now.

OK. Do you have any evidence for any of your "spinning carousel theory", or is it all mere conjecture?

A striking example of continental drift are icebergs in the ocean, the main cause of which is the western transfer of the atmosphere and polar winds.
And today, constant polar winds, which always move towards the equator, reaching speeds of tens of kilometers per hour, move huge icebergs towards the equator. No comments needed.
Comments are unnecessary.

What???

Icebergs are not an 'example' of continental drift.
Icebergs are not 'caused' by western transfer of the atmosphere (whatever that means).

You are comparing two unrelated things.

Look, you could push an iceberg around with a boat, if you are patient enough. Icebergs float in water, and water is a liquid.

Continents are mostly basalt rock. They are sitting on dense mantle, which is also rock.

No amount of wind is going to push a continental plate across the mantle.

Finally, polar winds only flow south as far as the subpolar regions. Below that, they flow north. Why aren't your continents all collecting at 60 degrees north?

It is possible that the continents are moved from the poles to the equator not by the tidal force but by the polar-fugitive force. (Polfluchtkraft). https://www.gemp.ru/article/11.html
