Kind of a lesser known 20th century moonshot: Atlantropa, the plan to dam off the Mediterranean to create new European land. Insane but they should have done it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantropa?wprov=sfti1#

This is cool. Although I'm not understanding how this was directly related to the Mediterranean plan. Just an additional idea?

I need to study the geography, but vaguely they must have had some provision to redirect water on the other side of the dam toward new tributaries!
