Abstract
This chapter is the first of two chapters in which we integrate the information of the previous three chapters into “real” tectonic models. The first two thirds of this chapter are dedicated to the description of continents in extension and in collision. In the last third of this chapter we touch upon a range of interesting and currently very topical geodynamic problems.
