The Suez Canal sees approximately 50 ships transiting daily, translating to around 18,000 vessels annually. This crucial waterway facilitates about 12% of global trade, connecting the Mediterranean Sea to the Red Sea. The canal's strategic importance is underscored by the diverse range of cargo ships, tankers, and container ships that pass through it each year.

Anger flared in the 1960s and led to anti-American riots. The U.S. and Panamanian governments began to work together to solve the territorial issue. In 1977, U.S. President Jimmy Carter signed a treaty which agreed to return 60% of the Canal Zone to Panama in 1979. The canal and remaining territory, known as the Canal Area, was returned to Panama at noon (local Panama time) on December 31, 1999. So not many ships passed through the Panama Canal in this year.
The first ship to complete the transit fo the canal was the cargo ship "Ancon", on August 15, 1914.
