The Suez and Panama canals are two of the most important canals in the world. They are crucial for the trade and travel through the sea, as they cut the sea routes by thousands of kilometers, which makes it much more easy and cheaper to use them. The Suez Canal connects the Mediterranean with the Indian Ocean, thus avoiding to circle around Africa, while the Panama Canal connects the Atlantic and the Pacific, thus avoiding to circle around South America. The one that controls these canals will manage to always get very large wealth because everyone will opt to use them as it much easier, cheaper, safer, and quicker, but in order to use it, everyone needs to pay certain tax. Those taxes are bringing in constant profit from doing pretty much nothing for the countries that control these canals. Also, it brings in a lot of power, as they can block the access of any country to it if they want, thus giving them big power on the global economic scene.

Peter C. Perdue's China Marches West argues that the Qing dynasty's ability to break through historical territorial barriers on China's northwestern frontier reflected greater Manchu familiarity with steppe culture than their Chinese predecessors had exhibited, reinforced by superior commercial, technical, and symbolic resources and the benefits of a Russian alliance. Qing imperial expansion illustrated patterns of territorial consolidation apparent as well in Russia's forward movement in Inner Asia and, ironically, in the heroic, if ultimately futile, projects of the western Mongols who fell victim to the Qing. After summarizing Perdue's thesis, this essay extends his comparisons geographically and chronologically to argue that between 1600 and 1800 states ranging from western Europe through Japan to Southeast Asia exhibited similar patterns of political and cultural integration and that synchronized integrative cycles across Eurasia extended from the ninth to the nineteenth centuries. Yet in its growing vulnerability to Inner Asian domination, China proper—along with other sectors of the "exposed zone" of Eurasia—exemplified a species of state formation that was reasonably distinct from trajectories in sectors of Eurasia that were protected against Inner Asian conquest.
