The Suez Canal was an important waterway in Egypt and a significant site in the Age of Imperialism. More specifically, European nations such as Britain and France fought over control of the Suez Canal, as it proved to be a strategic waterway for imperialistic campaigns. As such, historians consider the history of the Suez Canal to be significant to the European imperialism in Africa (Scramble for Africa) and British Imperialism in India.
