The work required to build the Panama Canal was initiated by France in 1881. However, France abandoned the project as the engineering problems were too difficult and the mortality rate was very high. The United States continued the work in 1904, and finished the project in 1914. This was seen as evidence of the American technological prowess. The work was extremely difficult to complete, as the project was one of the most difficult engineering projects ever attempted.

Nobody else could build that canal. The Americans are the only people who could build them. They also made the Panama canal so that they could access the necessary territory.

How was The first crusade was a justifiable defensive war.

miss Akunina [59]

Because it supposed to protect the territories of Byzantine Empire from the "unfaithful ones."

Explanation:

The first crusade lasted from 1096 to 1099 and was initiated by Pope Urban II with the aim of liberating the tomb of Christ and liberating the holy city of Jerusalem from the power of unbelievers (Muslims).
The first crusades were created on the basis of military success, and the first knightly ranks were created in Jerusalem itself.
This is the only crusade (and there were several more) that fulfilled its goal, the liberation of Jerusalem.
Byzantium received two heavy blows during 1071, the Normans occupied Bari, while the Seljuks Turks occupied the territories of Asia Minor after the Battle of Manzikert. Byzantine emperor Alexius was forced to seek help in Europe which he did not look favorably on.
Pope Urban II, who was concerned about the holy place (Jerusalem), responded to his call. It convenes in 1095 a council in Clermont attended by about 200 bishops, princes and nobles. It was decided to embark on the liberation of the holy place.

The influx of Irish immigants to the United States was caused because of a terrible famine in Ireland.

What did you LEAST like about HAMILTON in this unit?

lisov135 [29]

What did you least like about Hamilton in this unit?

Well, this is an opinion that you have to answer on your own but if you still need help I'll just tell you my opinion that I least liked about Hamilton.

One bad thing that he did was have an affair with Maria Reynolds. Not only was he blackmailed about it, and paid up, he also published a 95-paged-pamphlet on it, which, in the musical, was called The Reynolds Pamphlet (I believe that it had a different/longer name historically).

The musical also implies that Hamilton gave two pistols to his 19-year-old son and told him what to do when he dueled another man. This resulted in his son getting shot, thus, killed. Not a very good thing for a dad to do.
