Building the Panama Canal

The French in the 1880s had attempted to build a canal across Panama, this catastrophic failure, resulted in the deaths of over 22,000 individuals who were working on the canal project due to malaria and yellow fever. The French eventually stopped their attempt on the project in 1889.

The disease takes on this name because of the horrendous attack on the body that may lead to liver failure and result in a yellowish tone to the skin. The disease is a hemorrhagic fever which assaults the body causing a lengthy list of symptoms including vomiting, nausea, body aches, headaches, coughing up blood and possible resulting in death.

Colonial William Gorgas first let the charge in Cuba and then later in Panama to create a sanitation campaign, which laid waste to the habitats and breeding grounds for the mosquito carrying of the disease and discouraged other forms of contamination, such as isolating those who were sick in quarantine. With his successful program, the United States government was eventually able to complete the canal project in a 10 year period, at the beginning of the 10th century.

Which statement best characterizes a dictatorship?
Anni [7]
<span>Which statement best characterizes a dictatorship?

The answer is that the leader maintains power by force. 

Hitler, for example. 
He wasn't born into power. He was an ordinary guy with a bad haircut that joined a party in Germany called the "Nazi's Party". It was after World War 1 that many turned to extreme decisions and leaders, and Hitler was chosen as Chancellor after he had done things that would surprise a nation. (He tried overthrowing Germany's regime for instance and was jailed for treason). People turned to him because he made them feel good about their race, and they wanted someone whom could take them out of the poverty they were facing after Germany was in debt. 

In general, dictators tend to use force to control, and usually get rid of any political opposition. Those are the characteristics. 


I really do hope this helps. :) </span>
