Bryan–Chamorro Treaty
The Bryan–Chamorro Treaty was signed in 1914 by the US Secretary of State William Jennings Bryan and the Nicaraguan minister Emiliano Chamorro, and ratified in 1916. For three million dollars it gave the United States perpetual rights to build a canal through Nicaragua, leases on the Corn Islands and the right to a naval base in the Gulf of Fonseca. It was resented across Central America and was abrogated in 1970.
