To rule the oceans, you need warships \u2013 the best, the most, the strongest \u2013 and the right people to lead them into battle.<\/p>\n<p>Warships are the most expensive of weapons. Building them promises prestige and power \u2013 but using them always means taking a huge risk. Naval battles can decide the fates of nations in a matter of hours.<\/p>\n<p>For millennia, warships and naval warfare hardly changed. And then, in the 19<sup>th<\/sup> century, wood was replaced by iron and steel, and sails by steam engines. This is the moment where our series begins. In four episodes, \u201cSEAPOWER\u00a0 &#8211; The History of Warships\u201d welcomes us aboard some of the most famous battleships in history, as we tell the story of warships from the end of the 19<sup>th<\/sup> century to the present day.<\/p>\n<p>Through the eyes of real-life characters, we experience some of the most significant battles, the most catastrophic accidents, and the most fateful missions. \u00a0They share their private photos, and their private thoughts.<\/p>\n<p>Those who are no longer with us kept meticulous diaries, recording their insights, their memories, and their hopes and fears. And those who are still with us gave exclusive interviews \u2013 some for the last time. We see the fear and pride in their eyes and hear the emotions in their voices as they bring us into their worlds, their wars.<\/p>\n<p>We illustrate their stories with archival footage, some of which has been painstakingly restored, as well as personal footage, and newly shot footage of preserved warships.<\/p>\n<p>First-class experts give their stories context. They give us the information we need to comprehend warships as fascinating technical marvels and at the same time destructive war machines. In addition, we use animation to explain what lies at the heart of naval warfare: ship types, how their weapons and technology work \u2013 making the complex comprehensible.<\/p>\n<p>In chronological order, the four episodes recount some of the most exciting chapters of naval warfare .<\/p>\n<p>In the first episode, \u201cGiants Awakening\u201d, we witness how warships become a major cause of World War I \u2013 and how sailors ultimately help put an end to it. We have a front-row seat for the biggest naval battle of the war and feel the horrors of unrestricted submarine warfare.<\/p>\n<p>In the second episode, \u201cA World in Flames\u201d, we witness the demise of the Imperial German fleet \u2013 and the rise of Japan as a major power. Against the backdrop of the deadliest war the world has ever seen, we learn how submarines and aircraft carriers change naval tactics forever.<\/p>\n<p>In \u201cThe Chase Begins\u201d, at a moment where a new weapon has potentially made warships irrelevant, they become more important than ever. We are there when nuclear weapons first go to sea, and balance on the knife\u2019s edge of mutually assured destruction.<\/p>\n<p>In \u201cA Limitless War\u201d we venture a glimpse into the future. We see new powers rise \u2013 and witness an old power reborn. Finally, we ask ourselves and our characters: In a world where David can take on Goliath, what is the future of warships?[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243; disable_custom_paddings_mobile=&#8221;true&#8221;
