However, the company couldn't figure out a way to build it and ended construction. The United States then asked Colombia to give them the land for the canal but Colombia set the price for the land very high. Not wanting to pay this price President Roosevelt then went to Panama, funded a rebellion and sent war ships so Colombia wouldn’t get involved. Once Panama became an independent country the United States took the canal zone in order to build the canal.]]> 2020-10-30 01:49:51 UTC https://padlet.com/owencharris11/crc9e4bb0kj3lb0r/wish/875393869 owencharris11 https://padlet.com/owencharris11/crc9e4bb0kj3lb0r/wish/875399318 The Panama Canal allowed ships from the Pacific to the Atlantic Ocean and vise-versa.

After the Spanish-American War the Treaty of Paris was signed which went back on America saying that the Philippines would be free and took possession of it instead.

One of the main reasons is the German use of unrestricted submarine warfare. This led to the shipping of many ships such as the Lusitania and Sussex leading to hundreds of American casualties. The Zimmerman note was then intercepted by the British and revealed to the public that the Germans wanted Mexico to join the war and attack the U.S. if it joined against them. These all turned public opinion against the Germans however, the tipping point was the sinking of the US ships City of Memphis, Illinois and Vigilancia.
