What if instead of building a canal in Panama, it was instead built at the Isthmus of Tehuantepec?
Although being 120 miles in width, it is mostly flat and thus avoids the complication of building locks.
Not only this, to aid construction, the following powers, USA, France, UK, Germany, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain & Belgium all finance it in equal shares so as to serve their Empires and keep it neutral with Mexico policing and governing the canal?
Would this be viable/ and would it work?
