Before airplanes the only wat to get through or around north america was to go around it. and everyone knew that, so pirates would hide out and way for a good caring ship to come by. So the U.S. build the Panama Canal not just to avoid pirates but to also shorten the trip for everyone importing goods or cargo. the Canal turned a 45 day trip into a 40 day trip so it wasand has been a intersting accomplishment.
