Upon it's opening in [[1975]] the canal shifted the trade balance in [[Levantia]] north considerably. Whereas prior to that date all maritime trade going to the Vandarch had to go through [[Urcea]] and the [[Caroline Canal]], via the [[Sea of Canete]] which was the heaviest marine trafficked area in the world, the canal's northern placement reduced traffic in the [[Sea of Canete]] or made it a through point rather then a destination, and increased traffic in the [[Kilikas Sea]] 11 fold. Backwater islands like [[Scapa]], [[Wintergen]], and the [[Kestrel Islands]] became important ports of call at either end of the canal.
