Naval History

Paper Summary:

In this paper, the seemingly peaceable relations between Great Britain and France served as a catalyst for the Kaiser ambitions to build a technologically advanced German navy. By Great Britain sole dominance in the world on the high seas, World War I was different than the Second World War because most of the crucial battles for Britain took place on water. Essentially, the land locked armies of Europe could not successfully invade successfully due to the trench warfare techniques of the times. What makes this war different in precipitating World War I, was the Kaiser's deliberate and conscious efforts to build.

From the Paper:

"This naval history study examines the Crisis of 1914 and how it relates to the nature of mass warfare within the scope of world wars. By analyzing the growing naval power of the British, there was an aggravated attempt on the part of the Kaiser's Navy that instigated a chain reaction for war in Europe. In regards to the preventative measures, others countries took to avoid war with the Kaiser and there was a concerted effort by the Prussians to use aggressive measures to compete with and conquer the British Navy."
