The Nicaragua Canal is a proposed waterway that would connect the Caribbean Sea to the Pacific Ocean through Nicaragua. This canal aims to provide an alternative route to the Panama Canal, facilitating international trade and shipping. The project has been discussed for over a century, with various plans and proposals emerging over the years. In 2013, a Chinese company announced intentions to construct the canal, sparking both interest and controversy. Environmental concerns and potential impacts on local communities have raised questions about the feasibility and sustainability of the project. As of now, construction has faced significant delays and challenges.
