How did the us acquire territory for the panama canal?
Acquired by whom? It was, subsequent to the Spanish conquest, part of Spain's colony of New Granada. After the Spanish were thrown out of South America early in the 19th Century, it became part of the short-lived republic of Gran Colombia. After Gran Colombia was fragmented by civil wars in 1830, it remained a province of the smaller nation of Colombia. This situation changed early in the Twentieth Century when Panama, with the support and encouragement of the Uniteed States, declared its independence from Colombia. The U.S. engineered this event because Colombia refused to allow the US to complete the Panama Canal. Panama has been independent since its inception, though under strong US control for many years. The US had control and ownership of the canal itself (The Canal Zone) until the US gave it back to Panama late in the Twentieth Century, under a treaty signed by US President Carter.
