(c) 1869
Explanation:
The Suez Canal is a sea-level waterway in Egypt. It connects the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea through the Isthmus of Suez. It was officially opened on 17 November 1869. It was inaugurated in an elaborate ceremony attended by French Empress Eugenie, wife of Napoleon III. This canal reduced the journey distance from the Arabian Sea to London by approximately 8,900 km. It extends from the northern terminus of Port Said to the southern terminus of Port Tewfik at the city of Suez. The length of the canal is 193.30 km.
