15 Aug 1914 Jahr - Panama Canal

Beschreibung:

The difficult engineering project was started by the French in 1881 but was stopped due to high deaths and was later resumed in 1904 by the U.S. who completed it in 1904. The Panama Canal is one of the most important waterways in the world due to its connection between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, enabling ships to avoid going around South America and bringing large volumes of trade through the region.
