I want to know the answer to the following question:
What was the effect of Laurussia impacting Gondwana in North America?
All the background I'm provided with is that "This continental collision resulted in the Hercynian orogeny in Europe, and the Alleghenian orogeny in North America; it also extended the newly uplifted Appalachians southwestward as the Ouachita Mountains.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
