Pan-African orogeny

Target entity: Pan-African orogeny
Context triple: [Anti-Atlas, orogeny, Pan-African orogeny]

• A. Variscan orogeny
  The Variscan orogeny was a major late Paleozoic mountain-building event in Europe, broadly contemporaneous with the Appalachian orogeny, that resulted from the collision of continental plates during the assembly of the supercontinent Pangaea.
• B. Taconic orogeny
  The Taconic orogeny was an early Paleozoic mountain-building event along the eastern margin of ancient North America that contributed significantly to the formation of the Appalachian Mountains.
• C. Caledonian orogeny
  The Caledonian orogeny was a major Paleozoic mountain-building event that formed ranges across what are now Scandinavia, Scotland, Ireland, Greenland, and parts of North America as ancient continents collided.
• D. Appalachian orogeny
  The Appalachian orogeny was a series of ancient mountain-building events that formed the Appalachian Mountains through the collision of tectonic plates during the Paleozoic Era.
• E. Himalayan orogeny
  The Himalayan orogeny is the major mountain-building event resulting from the collision of the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates, responsible for creating the Himalayan mountain range and the Tibetan Plateau.
• F. None of above. chosen
• G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
