Explanation

The Suez Canal is an artificial sea-level waterway in Egypt that connects the Mediterranean Sea to the Red Sea. Constructed between 1859-1869, it provides the shortest sea route between Europe and Asia without navigating around Africa. It separates Africa from Asia and is one of the world's most important shipping canals.
