Explanation:

Before the Panama canal was built, ships in the western hemisphere trying to get to the Pacific ocean either had to go around Argentina or South Africa, the latter of which would see them having to go through the Indian Ocean first.

The Panama canal changed all that by cutting a path across Panama in central America to the Pacific. This allowed for ships to be able to get to the Pacific faster and vice versa thereby cutting down the travel time for cargo ships moving between both oceans.
