With the support of the U.S. government, Panama issues a declaration of independence from Colombia. The revolution was engineered by a Panamanian faction backed by the Panama Canal Company, a French-U.S. corporation that hoped to connect the Atlantic and Pacific oceans with a waterway across the Isthmus of Panama.
In 1903, the Hay-Herrán Treaty was signed with Colombia, granting the United States use of the Isthmus of Panama in exchange for financial compensation. The U.S. Senate ratified the treaty, but the Colombian Senate, fearing a loss of sovereignty, refused. In response, President Theodore Roosevelt gave tacit approval to a rebellion by Panamanian nationalists, which began on November 3, 1903. To aid the rebels, the U.S.-administered railroad in Panama removed its trains from the northern terminus of Colón, thus stranding Colombian troops sent to crush the insurrection.
Trade between native American communities and Europeans began in the 16th century up to the late 19th century. It was important for the creation and maintenance of trade relations with the new colonists. Besides, the native Americans helped the new settlers by teaching them skills needed for cultivating the land as well as hunting. Furthermore, the native cultures benefited from the colonists knowledge of the creation of wealth by means of capital (land), labor and entrepreneurship. In addition, they shared cultural knowledge and learnt the customs from both sides.
