摘要

CENTRAL AMERICA can best be considered as the "land-bridge" or isthmus that separates North America from South America. The land mass makes up most of the isthmus that separates the Pacific Ocean to the west from the Caribbean Sea in the east. It extends some 1,140 miles long from the northwest to the southeast. At its narrowest point the isthmus is approximately just 30 miles wide and that point is also the location of the Panama Canal.
