Answer:

Suez Canal helps trade between Europe and Asia by linking the Mediterranean and Red Seas. The canal offers a shorter journey between the Atlantic and Indian Oceans by avoiding traveling around Africa , in turn reducing the journey by approximately 7,000 kilometres (4,300 miles).

The Suez Canal is a man-made waterway connecting the Mediterranean Sea to the Indian Ocean via the Red Sea. It enables a more direct route for shipping between Europe and Asia, effectively allowing for passage from the North Atlantic to the Indian Ocean without having to circumnavigate the African continent.

The waterway is vital for international trade and, as a result, has been at the center of conflict since it opened in 1869.

The Suez Canal stretches 120 miles from Port Said on the Mediterranean Sea in Egypt southward to the city of Suez (located on the northern shores of the Gulf of Suez). The canal separates the bulk of Egypt from the Sinai Peninsula. It took 10 years to build, and was officially opened on November 17, 1869.

Owned and operated by the Suez Canal Authority, the Suez Canal’s use is intended to be open to ships of all countries, be it for purposes of commerce or war—though that hasn’t always been the case.
