Look at a map of global conflict zones, critical mineral deposits, and primary shipping routes. What seems like modern political strategy is actually a script written hundreds of millions of years ago. The wealth of modern nations was predetermined by the violent tearing apart of the ancient supercontinent known as Gondwana. Fractured Earth bridges the massive gap between prehistoric geology and modern geopolitics. The book explains how the specific ways tectonic plates ripped apart left massive, uneven deposits of oil, lithium, copper, and rare earth metals. These geological lotteries created the foundation for 21st-century economic dominance and supply chain vulnerabilities. Through deep geological history, you will understand why certain South American and African coastlines are mirror images rich in identical resources, and how the ancient collisions that formed the Himalayas are directly linked to today's semiconductor manufacturing constraints. Uncover the ultimate root cause of global wealth disparity. By understanding the deep mechanics of continental drift, you will never look at a world map, a geopolitical crisis, or the battery in your smartphone the same way again.
