Acerca de esta escucha

The history of the Panama Canal is a journey of dreams, challenges, and triumphs that spans more than a century. From the earliest explorations in the 19th century (1887) to the efficient Panamanian administration of the 21st century (2024), over 137 years, the canal’s story has unfolded, and since 1914, it has been a crucial connecting point for global commerce and a symbol of Panamanian resilience and sovereignty, though Panama’s geographic position had long been where the world gathered to transport its trade.

This novelized chronicle of the Panama Canal begins with the French, who, under the leadership of Ferdinand de Lesseps, undertook the ambitious project in 1888, facing a challenging terrain, tropical diseases, and financial issues that eventually led to failure. Later, the United States took over the project in 1904 and, after an intervention that facilitated Panama’s independence, embarked on the canal’s construction. Over the course of ten years, with advanced technology and relentless determination, the U.S. overcame landslides, yellow fever outbreaks, and malaria to complete the canal in 1914.

During both world wars, the Panama Canal was vital for the logistics and security of the United States and its allies, solidifying its position as a global strategic asset. However, U.S. control over the canal and the Canal Zone led to tensions and protests among Panamanians, who demanded full sovereignty over their territory. Decades of claims and sacrifices culminated in 1977 with the signing of the Torrijos-Carter Treaties, establishing a plan to transfer the canal to Panama.

In 1999, during President Mireya Moscoso’s administration, the Panama Canal finally came under Panamanian control, and the efficient administration of the Panama Canal Authority (ACP) has turned the canal into a model of management and transparency. In 2016, during the presidency of Martin Torrijos, a national referendum approved the canal’s expansion, designed and constructed under Panamanian leadership. Completed, it doubled its capacity and opened new routes for larger ships, reaffirming Panama’s position in global commerce.

Today, on the verge of 25 years of sovereign administration, the Panama Canal represents not only a route for commerce but also the pride and determination of a people who fought, conquered, and defended their sovereignty with steadfast resolve, consolidating their place in history.
