[[File:Majulan_Canal_map.png|thumb|250px|right|Map of the Majulan Canal.]]The '''''Canal majulais''''' ([[Midrasian language|Midrasian]] for 'Majulan Canal'), also known as the '''Boji Canal''' ({{wpl|Amharic|Mehare:}} ቦይ, ''Boj'') in [[Habasha]] or the '''Qana Canal''' ({{wpl|Persian language|Kazhwirian:}} کانال, ''???'') in [[Kazhwir]] is an artificial {{wpl|waterway}} connecting the [[Asur Sea|Asur]] and [[Iranic Sea|Iranic seas]]. The Canal marks the boundary between the {{wpl|continent}}s of [[Majula]] and [[Catai]]. The Boji Canal was originally constructed between 1850 and 1863 by the [[Midrasia|Midrasian]] [[Majulo-Cataian Canal Company]] (''Compagnie du canal maritime majulo-cataien''). The Company was founded by [[froggie1]] and [[froggie2]] with the support of the [[Midrasia]]n government at the time, following the signature of the [[xx Treaty]] with the Emirs of [[xx]], [[xx]] and [[Kazhwir]]. The territories adjacent to the Canal were {{wpl|lease}}d to the Canal Company for a hundred years in return for the emirs and their descendants receiving an annual percentage of the Company's profits. The [[Majulo-Cataian Canal Territories]] were returned in 1964.

Together with the surrounding [[Selale|Selale County]], the city forms the Gondar Metropolitan Area, Habasha's {{wpl|largest urban conurbation}}, home to one quarter of the country's popualation.


Today, the Majulan Canal is divided between a northern and a southern section, governed by the [[Majulan Canal Authority]], a {{wpl|publicly-traded corporation}} in which the [[Habasha|Habashi]], [[Kazhwir]]i and [[Midrasia]]n governments are the three main shareholders, with all three possessing a {{wpl|golden share}}.  
Gondar was founded in 1867 by ''{{wpl|Neguse Negest}}'' [[Yohannes IV]] to replace [[Asmara]] as the new seat of the imperial court. Gondar's location was favourable to the imperial campaigns to conquer and pacify the {{wpl|Oromo|Galla}} {{wpl|chiefdom}}s during the [[Grass War]] campaigns (1864-1877).  


The Canal covers a distance of approximately 0,000 kilometres, not including the two natural lakes, [[xx]] and [[xx]]. The full journey through the canal complex takes around 16 hours to complete, reducing the travel time of vessels by eliminating the need of passing around southern Majula. Today, the canal sees a very high level of traffic, with around 18,000 vessels traversing it in 2016 alone.
