Titanic's keel was laid in 1909 on March 31st and she was still being completed when she sailed on April 19th, 1912.
The Titanic was built in north Ireland by Harland & Wolffand ittook just over three years to build and fit out the RMS Titanic
You may be thinking of the Titanic's twin ship, The Olympia, which was built around the same time.
The Titanic cost around $1.8 billion to make.The approximate total construction cost for building the Titanic was $7.5 million, about $123 million in today's money.The original cost was $7.5 million.... which is around $300 million in today's money !Titanic was built in 1912 for what was 7.5 million US Dollars at the time.
Not much. Titanic was almost sailing at top speed at the time.
The Olympic never collided with her sister ship the Titanic, either in port or out at sea. The only vessel to have a near-miss with the Titanic was the much smaller American liner the United States as Titanic was leaving the port of Southampton- she was dragged into the much bigger ship's path, breaking her mooring lines and causing the Titanic's captain E.J.Smith to take evasive action, but there was no impact.
alot of time but about alot

No, she was built 1910 to 1912, in the time of George the Fifth.
yes on their time....
It was at the time it was built
Because, at the time it was one the largest ships ever built. Also, it was on its first "maiden" voyage.
The Britannic sank in 57 mins half of the time it took Titanic to sink.
The cranes that are currently in Belfast, Samson & Goliath, were not built until 1969 and 1974. At the time, she was built in what was the lafest "gantry"in the world.

The most told reason why people take artifacts from the Titanic is because artifacts help archaeologists see what life was like in the time of the Titanic
Actually they built 3 Olympic-class liners. There were 3 ships of the same design known as the Olympic class. The 1st was Olympic, the 2nd was Titanic and the 3rd was Britannic. It does take a long time to build ships like this but the Olympicc and Titanic were built side by side with Olympic started three months before Titanic so that the shipbuilders could move from one ship to the other as soon as they finished one stage. The completion of Britannic was delayed by the sinking of Titanic, so that safety modifications could take place. It was the largest of the three, two feet wider than the Titanic.
