3 0

France began work on the canal in 1881 but stopped due to engineering problems and a high worker mortality rate. The United States took over the project in 1904, and opened the canal on August 15, 1914. One of the largest and most difficult engineering projects ever undertaken, the Panama Canal shortcut greatly reduced the time for ships to travel between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, enabling them to avoid the lengthy, hazardous Cape Horn route around the southernmost tip of South America via the Drake Passage or Strait of Magellan. The french started it but americans finished it SO THE ANSWER IS FRENCH AND AMERICA

Do you think Julius Cesar was good for Rome? Why.

11111nata11111 [884]

He was good for some Romans, but bad for others. The optimates who opposed him in the Civil Wars certainly held a negative view. The people generally loved him, but he made too many powerful enemies in the Senate. Caesar was a great general and an inspirational leader, but he proved to be a very naive politician.

Which event proved that the U.S. purchase of Alaska had been a good investment?

nadezda [96]

Answer:

Finding of gold

Explanation:

In 1867, Russia sold the United States to Alaska for $ 7.2 million. Only during the first 50 years of rule over the country did Americans earn at least 100 times more from it.

After a short time, rivers of gold flowed from the ice chest. A gold rush began in Alaska in Klondike, which brought fabulous wealth to the United States. Of course Russia must feel regret. However, no one can know what kind of relationships would have prevailed in the world if this sale had not taken place.
