Question

Who built the Panama Canal and why did they do it?

Answer 1

It was opened in 1914.

Explanation:

The Panama Canal was first engineered by France in 1881, which started working on it. It was left unfinished until the USA restarted the constructions in 1904, managing to open the Canal in 1914.

Last year, expansion of the Canal was done for comercial issues.

Woodrow Wilson presided the country during that year.

The Panama Canal allows ships to travel between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans easily to ensure commerce and transportation of goods, supplies, etc.
