Historic Parking 1: The Separation of Panama from Colombia

2021 · 1 season

A wry, talky history lesson that turns backroom scheming into a chess match, amusing but requiring attention to follow the players.

Overview: Political tensions in Panama burst with the rumors of the rejection of the Herran-Hay Treaty, that'd grant the U.S.A. the rights to build the Canal. José Agustín Arango decides it's time to start a secret revolution for Independence, joining forces with prominent isthmian businessmen and politicians, and getting help from strong international figures like Theodore Roosevelt, William Nelson Cromwell and Philippe Bunau-Varilla in a "chess game" that some call "the Greatest Revolution of all time".
How it feels: Satirical, light, earnest and tense. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Politics, power, conspiracy, betrayal
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
