DVD Seapower - From Ancient Times to the Medievel World

SEAPOWER - ANCIENT SHIPS
The Mediterranean is a sea of historical significance. In ancient times, the
civilisations that grew up around it were the most powerful and influential of
their age. From Egypt through to Rome, it was Mediterranean nations who led the
Western world. Warfare was a vital part of their dominance and naval warfare was
perhaps the most important, allowing large armies to move relatively quickly across
vast distances. It is no coincidence that the great nations of ancient history
were all prolific in the art of war at sea, and some of the battles they fought
on water were the most important of their day. In medieval times, the warship
would also become a feature of the Northern European world. This is the story of
those distant days - the days of the first sea powers.
