When did they dig the Panama Canal?
The building of the Panama Canal was first started in 1881 by the French Government and due to a variety of problems ended unsuccessfully in 1889. The French failed because they tried to copy their success with the Suez Canal by building the Panama Canal at sea-level, but trying to cut a very deep trench through the Panamanian hills proved just too much. The builders themselves also suffered very severely from malaria and other diseases. In 1903, Panama officially declared itself an independent country, giving the United States construction rights for the canal. In February of 1904, the US Congress officially created the Panama Canal Zone. The Panama Canal was built by the United States between 1904 and 1914 on territory leased from Panama. The American designers realized the cut would have to go over the hills, using locks replenished from upland rivers. Incidentally, although nominally at sea-level and through a low-lying desert plain, the Suez Canal does have locks, but only at its Northern end and to cope with tidal differences between the Mediterranean and Red Seas. After 10 years of extremely difficult conditions, primarily caused by disease, the US completed the Panama Canal on August 15, 1914. Shipping traffic started using the canal from its unofficial opening on 15 August 1914, but it was officially opened by US president Woodrow Wilson on 12 July 1920.

When the US decided to take over Cuba Panama Canal Somoas Philippines Hawaii ect. didn't like it cause racism and sterotypes and more people to hate us?
Generally speaking, no. Michael Montagne why America decided to take over panama The Americans took over the Philippine's, Cuba, Puerto Rico and Guam, after the Spanish American war, which had no bases, these were Spanish Colonies, the last ones they had over almost 400 years, but the Monroe Doctrine, wanted America for the Americans, the ones who lived in the USA of course so they took these lands and made these countries part of the USA empire, as Panama was part of Colombia but since the Colombian Government did not allow the building of the Panama Canal, they invented a country that we now know as Panama, and of course that way the canal was built, as far as Hawaii is concerned they had trade with the Hawaiian king but when he wanted to raise the price of the Hawaiian goods the Americans took over. That is the way of the brave and the free, yeah right.
