Panama gained independence from Colombia on November 3, 1903. Construction of the Panama Canal began shortly thereafter, with significant work starting in 1904 and the canal officially opening on August 15, 1914. Therefore, the canal was built approximately 11 years after Panama's independence.
Panama's independence day is November 28, celebrating independence from Spain in 1821. They also celebrate the independence of Columbia in 1903, which is on November 3, called "Separation Day"

The role of the U.S. in Panama's fight for independence can be described as interventionist, strategic, and opportunistic. In 1903, the U.S. supported Panama's secession from Colombia to secure control over the construction of the Panama Canal, reflecting its broader imperial ambitions in Latin America. This involvement was characterized by a mix of diplomatic pressure and military presence, ultimately shaping Panama's sovereignty for U.S. interests.
