Basically, the US wanted access to the Panama Canal, and since the Canal wasn't yet built, it needed to built it. Originally the US made an proposal (which wasn't yet questionable), but Columbia (at the time Panama was part of Colombia) wasn't comfortable with the proposal, and the US decided to enforce their plan in other ways, so that they still gain access to the canal.

The French saw Joan of Arc as a heroine, a savior, a fighter and an inspiration. The English saw her as a threat and a heretic and were responsible for her death.
Explanation:
During the Hundred Years' War between France and England (1337 - 1453) Joan of Arc was an important figure who helped change the course of the war in Frances favour which in the long run enabled their victory.
She was an interesting person in history as from a young age she claimed to hear the voice of God and that he guided her in her actions and pursuits to come to the aid of the monarchy and the army to help fight in the war and have the rightful monarch on the throne. She dressed as a boy most of the time (which the English used against her as one of their charges to discredit her name) and in addition to leading the army in battle she also helped as a nurse on the battlefield. She inspired the French people and army with her determination and courage and many battles were won because of her.
The English saw her as a heretic, accused her of witchcraft, dressing as a boy and a threat to them securing a victory in the war. They captured her in 1430 and tried her. She was sentenced to death and burned alive. The English hoped this would deter the French and dampen their spirits but in fact the opposite happened. Today she is the Patron Saint of France.
