A ships that travel from Europe to India must had to cross the Cape of Good Hope which made the ships to sail around the entire west part of Africa and the half of the costs of Eastern Africa, until the construction of Suez canal in 1869.
In late 1800s, the Suez Canal Company had planned to construct a short cut sea route through Egypt to reach the eastern parts of its colonies. They cam up with an extraordinary plan called the Suez Canal. The Suez Canal connects the Mediterranean sea to the Red Sea that connect the Atlantic Ocean to the Indian Ocean .
