Hmm, there were several triggering events that promoted westward expansion of the United States. Victory in war over Mexico (1848) gave the US new lands in the west. A treaty with Britain (also in 1848) gave the US sole possession of some formerly disputed Oregon territory lands also. Plus, in 1848, gold was discovered in California (land newly in US possession after that Mexican war treaty), so that prodded westward expansion too. Perhaps those are the initial "turning points" you're looking for. The completion of the Transcontinental Railroad in 1869 sure helped the process as it was underway, as well.
The Suez canal is located in Egypt.
The Suez canal is located in Egypt west of the Sinai Peninsula and connects Port Said on the Mediterranean sea with the Port of Suez on the Red Sea. It provides a direct root for transport of good between Europe and Asia.
The canal is 195 km (121 miles) long and 300 meters wide. It can accommodate large ships of up to 150,000 tons fully loaded. It takes only 15 hours on average for a ship to traverse the canal from start to end.
The British opposed its construction in late 1861. It was officially opened in November 17, 1869.
