The Naval Race Between Germany and Great Britain: 1906-1914
The Anglo-German naval race was one that did not necessarily begin in 1906. In fact, years before, the Germans had already begun to expand the Imperial German Navy. In the late 19th century, the German Naval League was established. In the 20th century, there was little sign that the Germans would abandon their naval expansion program. The British were prepared to expand the Royal Navy to ensure that it clearly remained the largest in the world.
