Detailed Solution

The Suez Canal is the passage that shortened the distance between India and Europe.
India is connected with North America, Europe and South America by the Cape of Good Hope and the Suez Canal. Previously, ships from India had to cross Africa to Europe. Since the Suez Canal opened in 1869, the distance between India and Europe has shrunk by 7000 kilometres. The distance was 19,800 kilometres, but now only 11,600 kilometres.
