I suggest a mechanism for the force that moves continents. This force is ‘ridge push by Plate Tide lever working’. This force, which moves the plates of the Earth, This is the same force that splits Supercontinents, spreaing seafloor, and forms giant mountain ranges.The source of this force is the Earth plate tide by Moon and Sun. Earth plate fatigue failure by continuous tidal force. The cause of Continental drifting and Sea floor spreading is Earth plate tide and ridge push lever effect work.
