What is the Importance of War at Sea in World War 1 and World War 2?

The Battle of Jutland was key in the First World War, as although Britain lost more ships and men than Germany did, it was the High Fleet (Germany) who retreated, which allowed the Royal Navy to form a blockade, effectively starving the Germans. Without the blockade, the war would have probably gone on for a lot longer. In the Second World War, the Battle of the Atlantic was important, as it was an important fight to see who controlled the Atlantic, which was important as it was the route that the Americans and Canadians used to deliver food and supplies to Britain. Although the U-boats were far more deadly, the Americans and Canadians had too many ships to be sunk, so the Battle of the Atlantic was quite important.


Why was the Battle of the Atlantic important to the war effort?

The Battle of the Atlantic was very important to both Britain and Germany because Britain needed to control the seas between itself ant the United States to be able to receive supplies from them. The Germans wanted the Atlantic because they knew that if Britain was unable to receive supplies for war, they would have to surrender.

Which battle was the most important El Alamein Stalingrad Battle of Britain Battle of the Atlantic or D-Day?

Choosing the most important World War II battle out of the group of El Alamein, Stalingrad, the Battle of Britain, the Battle of the Atlantic, and D-Day is not easy. The Battle of Britain is arguably the most important, however, because without Great Britain's success in it, none of the other battles would have taken place; moreover, Germany's might would have grown terrifyingly, as a result.

Did the japanese submarines and warships dispatched to the atlantic play an important role in the south atlantic during the battle of the atlantic for the axis navies?

The Japanese military did not cooperate with the axis navies. Their enemies were in the Pacific Ocean, so they would not have sent ships to the Atlantic. The allies controlled the locks at Panama, so if Japanese ships wanted access to the Atlantic, they would have had to have sailed south between South America and Antarctica. So, no, the Japanese subs and ships did not play an important role in the "battle of the Atlantic", whatever that would have been.

Why didn't Canada use submarines in the battle of the Atlantic?

The role of submarines during the second world war was primarily the destruction of enemy commerce, and occasionally heavy naval units such as battleships, cruisers, and aircraft carriers. Since the battle of the atlantic was fought primarily against German Submarines which were targeting Allied merchant vessels, there would have been very little point to using submarines.
