Panama Canal
The country needed a way to get from the Atlantic to Pacific.
Colombia wouldn’t give the land so the US staged a revolution in Panama
A French man paid for it and Roosevelt then supported it with the US so Panama won.
The Panama Government land was taken by the US and they built the canal
Poor land to be built on and it caused a ton of problems
Didn’t get returned until 1999
When another government tried to step in in Panama the US(wilson) sent warships to “warn” Panama into not having a new government bc US would lose the land
