The Suez Canal is only 120 miles long. But 10% of ALL global trade passes through it.
In 2021, one ship got stuck. The world economy lost $10 BILLION per day.
🔑 KEY FACTS:
• Length: 193 km (120 miles)
• Traffic: 50+ ships daily
• Revenue: $9.6 billion annually for Egypt
• Global trade: 10% passes through
• 2021 blockage: $10B loss PER DAY
Without the Suez Canal, ships would have to sail around Africa - adding 3,500 miles and 2 weeks to the journey. Oil prices would spike. Products would be delayed. The global economy would feel it immediately.
The lesson: Geography creates chokepoints. Control the chokepoint, control the flow.
