The french started the canal but the workers died of disease and it was costing the french to much money so the Americans ended up taking over and finishing the canal.

Gatun Lake, and the channel called the Culebra Cut to its south, are the highest water-level points on the Panama Canal, being 26 meters (85 feet) above mean sea level.

There are hilltops that reach a few hundred feet higher than the canal itself, and the Centennial Bridge, near the Pacific end, has towers that are 604 feet high.

The air distance from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to Cancun, Mexico, is 1,388 miles. That equals 2,233 kilometers or 1,206 nautical miles.

The distance between the above places is 5215 miles. This distance is point to point straight distance. The actual distance may vary according to the flight path chosen. Also this is not the airport to airport precise distance.

1. No, it is located on the isthmus of Panama where the Americans built the Panama canal. The "canal zone'' was referred to as the land the Americans got through the land treaty with the Panamanians.

Yes, they do it all the time. In fact the sailors celebrate the passing through the canal.

The distance between the above places is approximately equal to 4778 nautical miles. To convert miles to nautical miles, multiply the miles by 0.86. This is point to point straight distance. The actual distance will change according to the route.

The Panama flag's colors symbolize the two political parties of Panama, the Liberals, which are red and the Conservatives, which are blue. The white represents peace between them and the equal division of the colors states that they both govern the country at different times. The colors of the Panamanian flag also have alternative meanings. The blue symbolizes the Pacific Ocean and Caribbean Sea and red represents the blood spilt for Panama's independence. The blue star symbolizes the civic virtues of purity and honesty and the red star represents the authority of the law. Together they symbolize loyalty and resilience.

Panama is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean, Gulf of Panama, and Caribbean Sea.

It is estimated that at least 50 million cubic meters of earth and rock were moved in the construction of the Panama Canal. It took over ten years, but it was successful.

First of all the US assisted Panama in their revolt against Colombia. It was only then that Panama agreed to let us build the canal. After that it was basically human labor and steam shovels which were a relatively new invention.

Because the Panama Canal is so close to the equator, you can expect weather to be generally warm (sometimes humid) and weather pretty close to the Southern United States. The Panama Canal itself is not really an outdoor activity. Most passengers will remain onboard during the entire transit. Stops on both ends of the Canal however share comparable weather. Happy Sailing!

Panama is a separate country located in Central America. It was once part of Colombia.
