The Erie Canal connects New York City and Buffalo, New York, a distance of 363 miles. It opened in 1825 to connect the Atlantic Ocean, traveling up the Hudson River from New York City to Albany and taking the canal to Lake Erie and the Great Lakes System.
Two effects that it had on the nation were that it opened the upper Ohio Valley and the Great Lakes region to settlement and trade, and it fueled nationalism by unifying these two sections of the country.
