Nope; here's Pangaea:

Well, it loooks to me like an ancient Earth continent - the bit at the left is South America squashed up and rotated a bit. You've got the general q shape, with the spine of the Andes down the tail. So my next guess would be Gondwanaland. images.google.com finds several versions, some quite similar to this - possibly this is a new and supposedly definitive version?

Nope; it's a present day continent. The answer is now at the bottom of the thread.
