The Hay-Pauncefote Treaties (1901), were agreements between the United States and Great Britain that permitted the former to build a canal in Central America, thereby clearing the way for U.S. construction of the Panama Canal. The first version, signed on February 5, 1901, envisioned a waterway like the Suez Canal, without fortifications.
