The country of Panama is not a canal, but it is an isthmus (thin piece of land connecting two larger pieces of land) between Central and South America. However, since it is the narrowest piece of land in the Americas, there is a canal in the country, allowing passage between Atlantic and Pacific Oceans without having to go around Tierra del Fuego.
