The control of the sea trialbycomics entry#1

The planet Earth is covered by 70% of water, rivers, lakes, seas, oceans; the empire that manages to dominate this field, will be the one that dominates the others, this can only be achieved through war.
An empire is limited in its territorial extension, to the rapidity with which its forces can go from one point to another of it. For a long time the fastest way to transport them was to cross the seas, but they were exposed to encounter enemy fleets; in such circumstances they had to decide whether to stay and fight or escape from the enemy; Fleeing was not an option.
