300 Million Years Ago: The Geological Formation Of The European Continent

This documentary takes you on a magnificent journey across space and time to witness the dramatic evolution of the European continent. From the glowing ball of fire that was the young Earth to the lush, oxygen-rich tropical forests of the Carboniferous period, we explore how shifting tectonic plates and ancient oceans shaped the landscape we know today. Witness the rise of the first vertebrates, the terrifying reign of the dinosaurs, and the catastrophic mass extinctions that repeatedly sent nature back to the drawing board. By examining fossilized remains in Bavarian quarries and the salt-veined depths of the Alps, we uncover the prehistoric secrets of a world where giant dragonflies patrolled the skies and ancestors of the modern bird first took flight. Odyssey is your journey into the world of Ancient History; from the dawn of Mesopotamia to the fall of Rome. We'll be bringing you only the best documentaries that journey into the mysteries and ruins of worlds long lost.
