Baltic Canal
The Baltic canal is the most direct route by water from the Red Sea to the Caspian Sea acting as the link to the outside world for the Caspian in trade. The canal aims to make trade cheaper and lower the cost of goods exports and imports in the region. We have connected the Caspian and rest of Europe with the route from Baltia and to near Porterdam since 1859.The canal has two way navigation with two lanes to prevent issues of traffic jams from crashes.

Navigation process
For easy navigation you must follow some rules and procedures. Every ship must first give us a log of goods in containers or the hold, and a planned destination as well as origin port so we can make sure its safe , no sanction busting is taking place and appropriate fees are paid. The fees for ships will depend on size and TEU.All ships must be within the maximum size for the canal outlined below:
Tonnage:120,000 DWT
Length:366 m (1,201 ft)
Beam:51.25 m (168 ft)
Height:57.91 m (190 ft)
Draft:15.2 m (50 ft)
Capacity:14,000 TEU

Please note non-econ military ships except hospital ships are banned from using the canal unless on an agreed humanitarian mission and certain goods may be restricted if they threaten the safety or smooth running of the canal or bio-security or environment of United Duchies. Ships carrying such materials although able to pass through the canal will face extra checks to ensure the loads are fully secured and the fees for this will be added to any toll fee on the canal.Ships can't be more than 15.2 m draft to pass through the canal.
