Answer:

Control and Power

Step-by-step explanation:

It connected the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, giving America more control of the Western Hemisphere. The Panama Canal, built in 1914, gave America control over both oceans (The Western Hemisphere), which was a big deal at the time due to World War I.
