🔍 Key Concepts

• Historic role of major West Coast ports in trans-Pacific trade • Which port was traditionally considered the primary terminus for navigation lines on the Pacific coast • Difference between a large modern container port vs. the historically designated "principal port"

💭 Think About

• Which West Coast city became the classic hub for early Pacific shipping routes and steamship lines? • If a traditional exam question uses the phrase "principal port ... at which navigation lines terminate," which port would older maritime references most likely be talking about? • Think about which of these ports was long known as a gateway between the U.S. and Asia before containerization shifted traffic elsewhere.

✅ Before You Answer

• Check older maritime references, not just current container volume rankings. • Confirm which city has a long history as a primary terminus for Pacific steamship and passenger lines. • Be sure the port you choose matches the idea of a historic principal port, not just a big modern harbor.
