The idea of the Panama Canal dates back to 1513, when Vasco Núñez de Balboa first crossed the isthmus of Panama. The narrow land bridge between North and South America was a fine location to dig a water passage between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The earliest European colonists recognized this, and several proposals for a canal were made.

  • La historia del Canal de Panamá comienza en 1513 cuando Vasco Núñez de Balboa cruzó por primera vez el istmo. El estrecho puente terrestre entre América del Norte y del Sur alberga el Canal de Panamá, un paso de agua entre los océanos Atlántico y Pacífico. Los primeros colonos europeos reconocieron este potencial y se hicieron varias propuestas para un canal. ​ (es)
  • L’histoire du canal de Panama remonte aux premiers explorateurs européens en Amérique puisque la mince bande de terre de l'isthme de Panama offrait une occasion unique de créer un passage maritime entre l'océan Pacifique et l'océan Atlantique. Les premiers colons de l'Amérique centrale l'ont vite reconnu et des plans de canaux ont été produits à plusieurs reprises par la suite. Actuellement, le canal est toujours en opération, dégage des bénéfices et représente une composante vitale du transport maritime mondial. (fr)
