The USS Oregon required six weeks to complete the 14,000 mile trip from San Francisco to the Caribbean - illustrating the need for a canal through Central America for the security of the United States. The USS Oregon

President Theodore Roosevelt, President Roosevelt, determined to build a canal across Central America in order to improve trade and the efficiency of the United States Navy, was the motivation behind the construction of the canal across Central America!

Roosevelt negotiates with Colombia Colombia was offered $10 Million cash and yearly rent totally $250,000. Roosevelt was impatient when Colombia refused what he considered a good offer.

Independence for Panama  In 1903, Panama revolted against Colombian rule.  The United States sent troops to Bogota to control any Colombian response.  Newly independent Panama agreed to allow the United States to build a canal across a 10-mile wide strip of land for $10 Million cash and $250,000 a year in rent.

The Panama Canal and Disease The Mosquito, which caused both Yellow Fever and Malaria, killed thousands in Panama. Dr. William Gorgas, who believed in the mosquito causation theory, effectively wiped out diseases in the Panama Canal Zone.

The Construction of the Panama Canal, Most of the laborers and Workers who built the Panama Canal were from the West Indies and of African descent – thousands died in the process. Most of the engineers and supervisors who built the Panama Canal were Americans – and very few died in the process.

The Panama Canal

TR took credit for building the Panama Canal.

“Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far.”

Roosevelt believed that Americans must be ready to use force to get their way if diplomacy failed.

The Roosevelt Corollary  An addition to the Monroe Doctrine which argued that “when the neighbors of the United States got into disputes with foreign nations, the United States had the right to ‘exercise international police power’ to restore order. The United States was creating its own Sphere of Influence – in the entire Western Hemisphere.

Not surprisingly, Europeans and Latin Americans had a different take on the Roosevelt Corollary than Americans did. Europeans were surprised the Roosevelt claimed all of the Western Hemisphere as a “Sphere of Influence.” Latin American nations, on the other hand, felt the United States was interfering in their own domestic affairs.

Big Stick Diplomacy & Dollar Diplomacy Dollar diplomacy was a foreign policy based on the idea that economic ties were the best way to expand American influence in Latin America. Taft sought to protect United States economic investments in Latin America – and would use military force or coercion if necessary.

Woodrow Wilson’s Moral Diplomacy Woodrow Wilson believed that the United States should follow a foreign policy which aimed to support and nurture the development of democracy throughout the world. In Latin America, he felt that the United States must teach the people the value of good democratic governments. Abroad in Europe, he would ask the United States to enter “The Great War” (World War I to you….) in order to “Make the World Safe for Democracy.”

Revolution in Mexico  Wilson twice invaded Mexico, however, which was in a constant state of revolution during the 1910s. In 1916, Francisco “Pancho” Villa actually attacked the city of Columbus, NM – killing 18 Americans.  Wilson had invaded Veracruz in 1914 in response to the arrest of several American sailors at Tampico, Mexico.
