Question

What action did the united states take to get rights to the land on which the panama canal was built?

Answer 1

The United States military supported Panamanian rebels seeking independence from Colombia to get rights to the land on which the Panama Canal was built.

Further Explanations:

Panama Canal is a man-made 82km canal that conduits the Pacific Ocean with the Atlantic Ocean and passes through Isthmus of Panama and acts as a passage for naval trade. Its importance was acknowledged by Americans during 1903 and then they presented Panama to declare independence in interchange for the authority of Panama Canal region. On 3rd November Panamanian populaces revolted against the Colombian administration and declared it independence on 6th November 1903 establishing a provisional administration at Junta.

The United States started the building of the Panama railway line in 1850 and finalized it in 1855. It soon became a vital setup in the Western Hemisphere. The main necessity for Americans to construct the Canal was to open occupation with Panama. Before it, Cape Horn abetted as the passage through “clippers route” used by marine ships to bring out their occupation.
