  • Summary

  • In light of the Ever Given being freed from the silted banks of the Suez Canal, Gusto puts his goggles on and dives head-first into the history of this man-made wonder. We explore ancient aquatic infrastructures that may have inspired the construction of the canal, namely the mysterious Canal of the Pharaoh and the irrigation systems of the world's first civilization: the mighty Sumerians. In liquid fashion, attention then turns to how the canal became such a central capillary of world trade, and how the crew members of the Yellow Fleet - 15 ships that got stuck in the Suez Canal for 8 years during the misleadingly named 6-Day War - ended up creating their own bloody nation.
