China’s $50 Billion Plan to Replace the Panama Canal — Right in America’s Backyard

Why did China try to build a second Panama Canal—and why did it suddenly disappear?

For over 100 years, global trade has depended on a single fragile choke point: the Panama Canal. But as droughts, ship limits, and supply chain pressure grow, the world faces an uncomfortable truth—Panama is no longer enough.

In 2013, a mysterious Chinese billionaire announced a $50 billion mega-project in Nicaragua that would dwarf the Panama Canal in size, depth, and ambition. Designed for the world’s largest mega-ships, this new canal threatened to reroute global trade, reshape geopolitics, and challenge American dominance in the Western Hemisphere.

Then… it vanished.

In this documentary, we investigate the ghost story of the Nicaragua Grand Canal:
🔹 Why the U.S. originally planned to build a canal here before Panama
🔹 How China quietly entered America’s backyard
🔹 The environmental time bomb hidden inside Lake Nicaragua
🔹 The stock market crash that killed the project overnight
🔹 And the secret geopolitical trade that changed Nicaragua forever

Was this the most ambitious engineering project of the century…
Or the greatest geopolitical bluff in modern history?

As climate change threatens the Panama Canal and global trade continues to skyrocket, one question remains:

Is the Nicaragua Canal truly dead — or just waiting to rise again?

Watch until the end to see how one abandoned mega-project could still reshape the map of the world.
