The Carboniferous Forests

I have just finished doing the Carboniferous period, here are some facts.

• It began 362 M.Y.A.
  
  


• It ended around 290 M.Y.A
  
  


• It was made up of huge swamps and green scaly trees.
  
  


• It was the fifth period after the Precambrian.
  



• The first reptiles appeared. Their immediate improvement to amphibians was that they could mate on land.
  

The first insects appeared. There was a dragonfly around that's wingspan could reach two-foot in length! (There is an image on the right.)

• The first forests appeared.
