Best Answer

The Suez Canal connects the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea. The canal, since at least 1956 belongs to Egypt. When it was first built in approximately 1869, it was a French- British company that built and for all practical purposes was "controlled" by these European powers. The canal has no locks and other constructions such as the Panama Canal. The Suez Canal was built as a straight link between the two seas.

11,000 "forced labor" Egyptians built the Canal.
