I can not see any connection of the Panama Canal to manifest destiny. The dream of manifest destiny was actualized long before anybody had any serious hope building a canal across Panama.
The social roots of manifest destiny can be condensed into a perceived belief by Anglo-Saxon immigrants that their expulsion of British authority and economic success were a sign from a higher power that all of the "Americas" were to be used for the benefit of the "white" man. This led to a combined disregard for most other races of immigrants and the Native Americans that needed to be exterminated to ensure the United States expansion to the Pacific Ocean.

When considering the positive viewpoint of Manifest Destiny we are faced with four aspects of the topic, which are political, economical, moral, and factual issues. From the settlers' point of view, their democratic government was the best in the world. They also had a right given by god to spread rule of the United States to the Pacific Ocean. This was known as "sea to shining sea." The trade relations with the Indians for furs and control of water routes, in exchange for guns, powder, knives, and alcohol. Settlers paid Native Americans 15-20 cents an acre and sold to settlers for high prices. Brought by Christianity to Indians through missionaries-Whitman's. They have provided safe places to live on reservations since they couldn't support themselves among the white population. Native Americans were not good managers of their property-acquired little or no property or articles of personal property to sustain life. On the other hand, while looking at Manifest Destiny, we found that there were just as many cons as pros in the same areas as well. For instance, politically Indians had signed treaties with whites that used complicated language that Indians didn't understand. Economically, the fur trade began to die out from over trapping by trappers-no way to support themselves. Indians also sold land to buy guns and tools that they were dependant upon made by settlers. Morally, Indians were forced at gunpoint to leave their homes. They couldn't take anything with them. The Indians' property was taken from them and was sold before their eyes for almost nothing. Americans also used forced flattery force and alcohol to convince them to sign treaties. Factually, Indians didn't understand the value to white man's money. Also, in 1838 the congress passed the Indian removal act forcing Indians off their land and to move west.
The study of history places the historian in a delicate situation. In many cases the result is to take current ideas and plant them in the minds of the persons that existed in the past. The question to be answered about "manifest destiny" is already loaded and now requires some examples to make a myth to explain, or even cause disdain among a group of people and their actions. This I maintain is why the so-called manifest destiny over shadows the reality of the times. In this case the reason that the "West" was settled. The term overlooks ordinary commonsense to explain that a belief that there was a "divine" sanction that caused the United States to stretch from the east coast to the west coast. What most historians have written is this: When the Harvard educated journalist coined the term "Manifest Destiny" in 1845, it was a description of why American vision was drawn, by God's will, to stretch from coast to coast. This idea ignores the common sense of the era, and also implies that "divinity" was not on the side of the Great Britain and Mexico. It also takes an opinion poll as to why so many Americans were influenced by two words. There was no opinion poll, and the logic that brought Americans to St. Louis, was not influenced by manifest destiny. In 1803, Napoleon need cash to carry out his adventures in Europe and Thomas Jefferson ( an "agnostic? " ) knew a good real estate deal when he saw one. At three cents an acre, the Louisiana Purchase almost doubled the size of the United States, but France, for all practical purposes had left North America. Thus one potential adversary was gone. The West was already in the process of being settled when the Mormons were forces west of the Mississippi. Their founder, Joseph Smith had already been murdered, so Brigham Young led his group, with very "un-American" ideas about bigamy, to Utah. In 1844, under US President John Taylor, a treaty with China was the opening door for a prosperous trading future. Around this same time, Mexico and Great Britain were geo-political problems for the US. The British had been negotiating with Sam Houston, trying to lure the Texas republic away from the US. Mexico was conspiring with the British to give them a stronger hold on California. The Mexican War in 1846, was not a religious war. The peace terms provided, which was important then as it is now, for land the Mexico could not control anyway. 1846-- US President Polk signs deal with Great Britain over the "Oregon problem". Somehow, Great Britain moved it's Canadian "territory" from coast to coast with no apparent divine approval. !849-- Gold Rush! The list is long. When the Federal government was giving away lands west of the Mississippi, it was a good deal for people to make a new start. The lavish land grants to railroads were not driven by the "Lord's Will". The bottom line here is clear. Americans went on a land grabbing spree because they believed it was God's destiny that they should. This was not the case.

Every country has a signed language unique to itself, and very few of them are similar to each other. Panama's is Panamanian sign Language, or Lengua de señas panameñas (Panamanians speaks Spanish)
Because Panama was once a colony of Spain.Panama was part of the Spanish empire for several centuries. The language of that empire was Spanish. When Colombia became independent of Spain, it kept the Spanish language and when Panama became independent of Colombia, it also kept the Spanish language.

President Jimmy Carter made contributions to the humanitarian efforts around the world. He is a promoter of Homes for Humanity which helps underprivileged people secure their own homes.
President William Howard Taft said it during a luncheon at the Cliff House in 1911. He made it in connection with the approaching Pan Pacific Exposition in SF that marked the opening of the Panama Canal. Many took it as a sign that the city was recovering from the 1906 earthquake and fire.
Panama was at first part of Colombia, but they continually revolted. The United States assisted Colombia in putting the rebellions all throughout the 19th century. In the early 1900's, Theodore Roosevelt wanted to build the Panama Canal, so he asked Colombia if the US could. The rejected it. Of course, the US suddenly supported the panamanians, so the US helped Panama gain independence to build the canal. That is basically how they gained independence.
There is currently no sign of that but there is going to be a super edition about SkyClan called SkyClan's Destiny.
The Canal Ruins can be found on Sophian Island west (<--) of the Aqua Resort and Mt. Sorbet. You'll know your there when you get to a place where its always raining. Suicune is found in the Canal Ruins, too.
The French were the first to try and build a canal across South America, starting in 1882. Before they could start work, they needed to secure a concession from the Columbian government, which controlled Panama at that time. However, their project failed, thousands of workers died (mainly from disease,) and the company went bankrupt six years later, in 1888. A Frenchman named Philippe Bunau-Varilla managed to keep the effort from collapsing entirely, and looked for another party to take up the concession. The United States, which was also interested in building a canal, negotiated to buy the concession from the French. However, Columbia refused the sale. Meanwhile, nationalism was stirring in Panama. An agreement was made with the US government that if the US would help Panama gain their independence, they would allow the canal to be built. In 1903, Panama became its own country, and the United States immediately recognized the new government. Columbia sent troops to reclaim Panama, but US warships prevented them from landing. After the United States helped Panama win its independence, a treaty was immediately negotiated to allow the US to build a canal. The treaty granted considerably more to the US then the failed agreement with Columbia had, including rights to use military within Panama and US control of the Canal Zone in perpetuity. In essence, the Canal Zone would be part of the US in all but name. However, the man who signed for the Panamanians, the Frenchman Bunau-Varilla, was not part of the official delegation from the new Panamanian government, and some Panamanians felt that the rights granted to the US in the treaty were excessive.
