Sažetak
The idea of building a canal which would connect two great Pannonian rivers, the Danube and the Sava, is almost two thousand years (from ancient Rome) old. This idea appeared and disappeared through the history depending on the political games and power of rulers, and every authority represented it as a fundamental issue of the agriculture, transport development and improvement of the living conditions and the survival of the people in these areas. As Croatia has become a sovereign state, this idea realized it. The construction of the Canal provides traffic connections of the region of Slavonia with the most commercial type of transport (water transport), next to simultaneously irrigation improvement, melioration and puts a real foundation for the development and improvement of the secondary and tertiary social and economic activities. The Canal represents a generator of the development in the segments of the transport, agriculture and processing industry. The Canal promotes employment, job creation in industries which would not existed without the Canal and with the growth of economic activity of the region, affects on the prosperity of the wider community. Canal encourages additional investment in infrastructural projects, such as the Port of Vukovar and the Port of Slavonski Brod, and the further development of the road and rail network.
