The Suez Canal is a waterway that connects the Mediterranean and Red sea. Today Egypt has control over the waterway. About 15,000 ships pass through the Suez canal in a year, maybe a little bit more. Today the Suez canal is extremely important, it is mainly used to transport oil. If we had to go around all of Africa our oil would be way more expensive then it is now. So it is pretty important.
