When the Titanic set sail it made a boat come loose from the dock- Tugboats struggled to keep the two from colliding- What is the name of that boat?
An accident was narrowly averted as Titanic passed the moored liners SS City of New York and Oceanic. Her huge displacement caused both of the smaller ships to be lifted by a bulge of water, then dropped into a trough. New York's mooring cables could not take the sudden strain and snapped, swinging her around stern-first towards Titanic. A nearby tugboat, Vulcan, came to the rescue by taking New York under tow and Captain Smith ordered Titanic's engines to be put "full astern". The two ships avoided a collision by a matter of about 4 feet. The incident delayed Titanic's departure for about an hour while the drifting New York was brought under control.

What else can I help you with?
How many puntures did the Titanic have?
I'm not so sure what the Titanic had would be referred to as punctures. There was a huge rip down the side. The rivets tore loose and laid a large portion of the ship open.
When the Titanic scraped against the Titanic what did it hit?
Well, it struck the first 5 "watertight" compartments, most likely creating a bunch of small holes by scraping agains the ship and causing bolts to come loose.
What happened to the New York as the Titanic departed?
The mass of the moving vessel caused a displacement so severe that the New York was torn loose, was dragged toward Titanic, and almost collided with her. Many sailors took this to be a bad omen.
What did they do with the Titanic when they found it?
Not much really. It's too deep, and by now too fragile to try to raise it. The took photos and film, retrieved some loose items, a piece of steel for analysis, and that's about it.
Was the whole titanic found?
Pretty much. Loose pieces, and fragments that broke off during the sinking has probably spread quite wide. But most of the ship ended up almost intact in one spot.
Why did so many Titanic passengers loose their life?
The captain of the titanic wanted to reach New York in record time, the captain decided to take a detour to try and achieve this goal, a iceberg was spotted as it was pitch black they could hardly see, and the engineers put the titanic into reverse gear which was a big mistake, if they kept at the same speed they could have avoided it and gotten closer to New York or atleast another ship. anyway... the titanic began to fill up with sea water as did the lifeboats with people, stranded in ice cold water for 4 hours, Man, woman and child lost their lives to the sea. No ships were in the radius of the Titanic, and it would've taken a long time to get out to them.
What The nation consisted of a loose alliance union of the independent states Which was called the league of?
The nation you are referring to is likely the League of Nations, established after World War I to promote peace and cooperation among countries.

However, it ultimately struggled to enforce its resolutions and prevent aggression, leading to its dissolution and the formation of the United Nations after World War II.

What jobs were involved in building the Titanic?
Thousands. Their were planners, builders, and overseers. Quote FROM: http://www.titanic-facts.com/titanic-construction.html "It took 3 years for building of the Titanic to be completed and in the end it cost $7.5 million dollars for the ship to be finished. More than 3000 men were employed in building the Titanic during that time span. In the months, and even years, leading up to the maiden voyage of the Titanic; the White Star Line published numerous marketing materials claiming that the ship was 'designed to be unsinkable.'" " At the time, the construction methods used in the building of the Titanic were considered to be second to none. Titanic construction included sixteen compartments that were reported to be watertight. Builders of the Titanic had included steel doors that were supposed to have been capable of being shut in 25 seconds or less; thereby enclosing any water that might have seeped in to threaten the safety of the ship and her occupants. Of course, we now know from the photographs taken of the ship's wreckage, that in all likelihood many of the nearly 3 million rivets that were employed to hold the ship's hull plates together popped loose when the vessel struck a massive iceberg. Without the rivets to hold the plating together, they quickly buckled, allowing water to seep into the ship. New theories have suggested that the iron used in the Titanic construction may have been less than the best quality, containing high degrees of sulfur, which made the hull plates particularly susceptible to the icy cold waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Builders of the Titanic can hardly be blamed for the iron's contribution to the tragic sinking, however. The iron used in the construction of the Titanic was standard for the first part of the 20th century. While the high sulfur content in the iron may have surely played a role in the tragic history of the Titanic, it was not the sole reason the ship sank."
