I Hope i helped :D

There was also lots of rocks that needed to be moved which eventually got moved by hand or machine!

Some hardships people building the Panama Canal faced were: - Trying to dig through jungle and mountains - Explosive diarrhea, caused by tropical diseases. - Attacking wombats (which is REALLY odd, because they don't originate from Panama) - Count Choculitis. - Hematite: the world's newest STD. - Oral Aquification: a rare, horrendous disease where the victim's teeth dissolve into an acidy liquid and drain down the backs of their throats. - Alcoholism. - Yellow fever. - Malaria.

Through the Hay-Herran Treaty the United States built the Panama Canal starting in 1903 ending in 1914 with the first ship passing through on August 15. The United States retained control of the Panama Canal until December 31, 1999 when control was handed over to Panama.

Many people use the Panama Canal to sail to the other side of panama and import/ export items.

It provides millions of dollars each day into our economy, but due to corruption, most of the money is deviated into corrupt politicians and not the people.

The idea, as implemented by the French with the Suez Canal, was to reduce shipping times and prevent loss of ships on dangerous routes. Both Africa's Cape of Good Hope and South America's Cape Horn are notorious for violent weather. However, the French efforts at a canal (1880-1893) failed.

The advantage to the US, which had consolidated its continental territory, was to improve shipping that connected the two coasts. This included commercial as well as military vessels. The Spanish-American War (1898) illustrated the difficulty of transferring ships from the Atlantic to the Pacific and back. Under President Theodore Roosevelt, the US decided to unilaterally build a canal, securing the territorial rights by facilitating the independence of Panama from Colombia in 1903. The US efforts from 1904 to 1914 built the canal, and its control was assured by US sovereignty over the Canal Zone until 1999.

In the making of the Suez canal about 120,000 Egyptains died....... that's all i know ^-^

The Panama Canal is a split of North and South America, so whenever goods are transported by water, they just pass through the Panama Canal instead of going all the way around South America. It helps take less time to transport goods.

The purpose of the Panama canal is to connect the Pacific ocean to the Atlantic ocean. Without it ships would have to round South America to make that journey, so the canal saves a lot of time.

Panama would gain full controll by December 30, 1999

It connects by North America and South America.

Geography was everything. The terrain had to be as close to perfect as they could find. As it was the project was shut down until Teddy Roosevelt stepped in to complete the job. The semi-tropical climate was the biggest obsticle. Many of the workers died from malaria (yellow fever). Between problems with disease and lack of money the Panama people had to scrap the idea. It's hard to imagine central America without the canal. For years the property of the United States, it has since been returned to the Panamanian people.

In 1902 Columbia controlled the area and President Roosevelt used some diplomacy to get some wealthy residence to declare independence and promise military support. Panama became a country in 1903 and a treaty was signed giving the US control of the land to build the project.

The Panama Canal connects the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. This meant that shipping could pass between the two oceans without risking the atrocious weather often found when passing Cape Horn, South America.

It connected the Pacific ocean and the Caribbean sea

Even a period of only a few decades can greatly change the historical context surrounding an event
People's points of view can change to suit changes in historical context.

A big role. The US Army Corps of Engineers built the canal itself.

Is this for the Panama Canal Research Project for Mrs.Reid's class? =)

President Theodore Roosevelt aided in the building of the Panama Canal. Construction began in 1904 and was completed ten years later.

Panama Canal, an engineering wonder, constructed between the North & South America. Know the layout of the canal, how the ships get lifted up above the sea level for transit, the lock gates, its construction and importance in shipping industry.

In one respect, the Atlantic opening is farther west than the Pacific opening. While transferring through the Panama Canal, one rises in elevation somewhat higher before returning to sea level, than one does through the Suez Canal. Another significant difference is the length. The Suez Canal is around 190km in length, whilst the Panama Canal is about 80 km long.
