Canada? Eh?

If you want to check out a large body of water disappearing, check out the Aral Sea, once one of the largest lakes in the world. Map makers have actually had to show the major changes to it. I have a globe from the early 80's and it is quite striking to see how much it has shrank since then.

Aside from being a popular answer in many crossword puzzles (a very favorable vowel to consonant ratio) it is disturbing to see what has happened to that body of water.

Even here in America - we have the Salton Sea. A sea literally created by accident. I think 90% of Americans don't know what a mess it is now.

You can thank the old Soviet Union for its demise. Drained mostly for agricultural use.

Apples and Oranges to the Aral Sea. Former an accident that is reverting to nature; the latter artificially destroyed

Where would you find the largest concentrations of sunken ships I wonder? Caribbean? Great Lakes?

Id think it would be the Mediterranean given that boats have been navigating that body of water for millennia.

Haven't they already found sunken towns in the Mediterranean?
