If you zoom in on the bottom of this map it looks more like a sketch of a proposed canal. There are multiple locks and canals that need to be dug.

If there were all these locks present don’t you think we would see them?

Right. I thought it was rather well known that this had always been the alternate proposal of how to possibly canal across Central America. Of course, there would have been drawn maps and diagrams of it.

It’s being dug right now by the Chinese

Smithsonian

quote:
When construction crews begin digging a new canal this month across Nicaragua, connecting the Pacific and Atlantic, it’ll be a boon to global shipping and, the government says, to the economy of the second-poorest nation in the Americas. But activists, scientists and others are increasingly alarmed by the environmental impact of a 173-mile artificial waterway—wider, deeper and three and a half times the length of the Panama Canal. Developed by Wang Jing, an enigmatic Chinese industrialist with ties to China’s ruling party, the Grand Nicaragua Canal will cost an estimated $40 billion and take five years to build. At 90 feet deep and 1,706 feet across at its widest, the channel will accommodate the newest cargo supertankers, which are longer than the Empire State Building is tall and carry 18,000 shipping containers. The vessels are too big to pass through the Panama Canal (even after a $5 billion expansion is completed) or to dock in any U.S. port.

We could have built it ourselves with the money we sent Ukraine

China is absolutely wrecking us on a global level. There’s a certain president who tried to call attention to it.

YAT -- IS it possible that some maps and diagrams created at the time (1880s-1890s) by engineers and cartographers -- were ordered to put the kibosh on the whole renewal of the Nicaraguan route - including documents past and present (at the time)?

What does suspending the Nicaraguan canal project do (in lieu of building the Panama canal project?)

(Just a crazy theory)

Was this whole "canal" location thing by this time totally political? *Remember* -- Spanish territories were attacked by the US in 1898 -- "Remember The Maine!"

1) Moving the canal project away from Nicaragua helped erase / revise the entire historical narrative of the shortcut existence and its uses as a port for California / Pacific transport.

2) A much easier Nicaraguan canal project would still be owned by Spain. In that case, THE most crucial transpiration hub to the Pacific would be opposed because Spain and NOT the US would control it AND financially exploit it.

3) Shifting the plan to the Panama Canal Zone would give full control of trade transport to the US (even though this project made little logistic sense.) It was an insane undertaking, started by the French -- 51 mile long, starting from complete scratch.

I doubt official "History" would entertain that version as possible.
