Building the Panama Canal

Since President Teddy Roosevelt's term of office began, he wants to liberalize American imperialism. He believes that building a canal in Latin America will be a good way to empire. It will link the ocean of the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean and will be more efficient and faster than bypassing the bottom of South America at Tierra del Fuego. Roosevelt built the canal and decided to keep pushing it until he found his way. He faced many obstacles, but his decision made it possible for him to overcome obstacles.

Chocano predicted North American 'racial competition' would not succeed in constructing the Panama Canal. Only Latin Americans with "blackhead" can do this. But he is wrong. Construction of the Panama Canal in the United States shows that the gap between effective organization and institution can not be eliminated by poetry. Since the Panama people have used US support to fight independence for Colombian regime, even the idea of ​​racial solidarity has been counterargumented.

1903: The Senate approved the Heilang Treaty and approved the United States to guarantee the right to construct the Panama Canal. "The total cost of the Panama Canal is about 336 million dollars, most of which is borne by the US The ship on the western side of the Atlantic is one of the reasons to go to Western countries South America is South America Another reason for canal construction is to make it easier to access products in Panama and Central America The Panama Canal is the first waters connecting the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean.

Roosevelt implemented an aggressive foreign policy. He tried to reach an agreement by allowing Colombia (then part of Panama) and the Panama Canal to be constructed. When the Colombian refused, Panama began a rebellion. The United States immediately recognized the victory of the new Colombia - Panama government and negotiated the canal treaty swiftly through the government. Roosevelt is also active in internal affairs. He is pursuing the enforcement policy of the Antimonopoly Act. His government filed an antitrust lawsuit against a series of monopolies. Roosevelt intervened in mining workers in 1902 under the attack of coal mines. He also strongly supports the first Federal law to regulate the inspection of meat, chemicals and other substances.

Roosevelt believes that a canal that crosses Panama Strait will be for US military and commercial interests. After Colombian refused the US provision for canal construction, he backed Panama 's local political class with his efforts to establish an independent state. In order to prevent Colombia from repressing the revolt he sent an American warship to block the passage of the sea. The state of the new Panama has sold the canal region to the United States for 10 million dollars and is increasing year by year. The Panama Canal was completed in 1914. Roosevelt believes his completion is his most historical international achievement.
