What is a thin sweep of land that connects Central America an South America?

Panama, the southernmost country in Central America, I suppose could be called a "thin sweep of land," but Panamanians probably wouldn't like it. Another, shorter name for this "thin sweep of land" would be, "isthmus." Again, Panama would be the only logical answer here--keeping in mind that Panama is divided by a canal as well.
