A provisional Estados Unidos de Centro America government forms in Honduras, Nicaragua, and El Salvador with a three delegate per state setup at Amapalpa. The move transfers national and international authority to a new body until a president is elected in March, while rights to build the canal hinge on a lapse of the Maritime Canal company contract and trigger further U S involvement.
