At that point, it was theorized that there was a waterway through or around this continent, which was dubbed the "Northwest Passage." It was largely unnavigable until the 21st century, and ownership is disputed between Canada who declares that the passage is in Canadian waters, and the US and European powers insist that it is international waters.
