Importance
• A main reason the United States built the Panama Canal was to– 1. close the Western Hemisphere to new
European colonization.– 2. reduce travel time for commercial and military
shipping.– 3. promote an isolationist foreign policy.– 4. prevent the spread of communism.

French - The 1800’s
• 1835 France is given a permit to build a canal across Panama.
• However first they have to come up with a plan to build the canal.
• In 1881 they finally start.

Building the CanalThe next few pictures show what the
area looked like when the French started building the canal. What
challenges do you think they faced building a canal in this type of area?

After looking at these pictures what do you think would be the challenges of
trying to build a canal through a tropical jungle and mountains?
![Page 12: Objective: Identify America's role in the Panama revolution and then building the Panama Canal](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649dc45503460f94ab7716/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The French Give Up
• 1881 A French company begins construction on the canal.
• After eight years France gives up on the project.
• Over 20,000 construction workers died working on the project for France and the company trying to build the canal goes bankrupt.
![Page 13: Objective: Identify America's role in the Panama revolution and then building the Panama Canal](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649dc45503460f94ab7716/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Why was it so important to build a canal?
• It is 1904. Theodore Roosevelt is president, and the United States is fast becoming one of the most powerful nations in the world. Such recent inventions as the telephone and the automobile make the 3,000 mile wide country seem a lot smaller.
![Page 14: Objective: Identify America's role in the Panama revolution and then building the Panama Canal](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649dc45503460f94ab7716/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
But, what if a canal were built where the land between North America and South America is narrowest-across Panama? That could shorten the trip by nearly 8,000 miles!
![Page 15: Objective: Identify America's role in the Panama revolution and then building the Panama Canal](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649dc45503460f94ab7716/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Panama Canal
• In 1901 the United States negotiated the rights to build a canal in the Caribbean– Had to allow all nations to use it
• U.S. decides to construct canal in Panama, which was part of Colombia
• Colombia did not agree to the financial terms offered by the United States
![Page 16: Objective: Identify America's role in the Panama revolution and then building the Panama Canal](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649dc45503460f94ab7716/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Panama Canal
• Roosevelt strongly encourages Panamanians to rebel and declare their independence
• Under TR’s foreign policy, use brokers a treaty, which Panama to construct a canal and lease the land for 99 years

Panama Canal
• 250 million cubic yards of soil removed
• Ten years to construct• Workers died of yellow
fever and malaria

Panama Canal
![Page 32: Objective: Identify America's role in the Panama revolution and then building the Panama Canal](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649dc45503460f94ab7716/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Working Conditions
Imagine working on the Panama Canal. By noon the temperature is about 100 degrees. It’s humid-so humid that after it rains steam rises from the ground and your clothes become soaking wet. There is no shade, no air-conditioning, and no place to get cool.
![Page 33: Objective: Identify America's role in the Panama revolution and then building the Panama Canal](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649dc45503460f94ab7716/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Working Conditions
The average yearly rainfall is about 80 inches. Flooding makes the ground like pudding, and you can sink up to your knees in mud. Tropical diseases, such as yellow fever and malaria are spread easily by mosquitoes.
![Page 34: Objective: Identify America's role in the Panama revolution and then building the Panama Canal](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649dc45503460f94ab7716/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Working Conditions
A tropical jungle may be a fascinatingplace for scientists to work, but forworkers trying to build a canal it’s anightmare. Imagine trying to dig outtons of dirt in a jungle like this. And there was no insect repellent to keepthe bugs from biting.
![Page 35: Objective: Identify America's role in the Panama revolution and then building the Panama Canal](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649dc45503460f94ab7716/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Working conditions
As one worker said, “There was no shelter from the sun or the rain. There were no trees, and when the sun shines, you get it. When the rain falls you get it.”

America.– 3. reduce European colonialism in the Western
Hemisphere.– 4. prevent a foreign power from seizing land in Central
America.

the canal.– 2. refused to use the canal and refused to trade with the
United States.– 3. were angry at the United States for its role in the
Panama Revolution.– 4. received regular payments to help provide security for
the canal.
