The Tragic Story of the Titanic: Lessons from the World’s Most Famous Shipwreck
Introduction: The Unsinkable Ship
The RMS Titanic was one of the largest and most luxurious passenger ships ever built, designed to be “unsinkable.” Constructed by the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast, Ireland, Titanic began its journey from Southampton, England, on April 10, 1912. Onboard were over 2,200 passengers and crew members, many of whom were prominent figures from around the world. The ship's luxury and grandeur made it a symbol of human achievement and technological progress. However, the Titanic’s tragic sinking due to an iceberg collision just four days into its maiden voyage left a deep scar on maritime history.
