Olandra Canal

The Gulf of Forinse is seperated by the Amethyst River by fifty miles at the thinnest point of Olandra in the far south of the country. Several generations of kings of Olandra, not always the most stable pack of individuals, have intermittently worked on digging this canal to connect the river with the sea. This is the sort of grand project that King Hufskey would naturally take to, so he is working as hard on it as anyone. It is nearly finished, expected to be open next spring. It is indeed expected to make a good amount of money, though the profits certainly will not equal the expenses Olandra poured into it for the forseeable future. However, it may be a strategic coup, allowing King Hufskey and his successors to sail Olandran warships from the gulf to the Amethyst River. Military minds in Rupius have noted that it lets out within fourty miles of their own port on the Amethyst.
