One of the most impressive navies in the world. Even their history is very impressive. They have conquered the world and make their presence felt in nearly every continent. Not too shabby for a country that lies of Europe and where even the Romans did not want to civilize. However, I know that most of us aren't that interested in the Royal Navy History but if you are looking for something interesting to read, this is it. I am betting no other navy's history is as varied and as impressive as the Royal Navy's. Come on, you have to admit they did what most other powers in the world could not, especially at that time. You can browse through the site by checking out the periods and timeline. I guess the easiest way to get into the thick of things is just read through their featured articles.
