The sinking of the Titanic is a tragic event etched in history. The Titanic, deemed “unsinkable” at the time, struck an iceberg in the North Atlantic Ocean on April 14, 1912. The disaster resulted in the loss of over 1,500 lives, making it one of the deadliest maritime disasters in history. Despite efforts to evacuate passengers, the ship’s inadequate number of lifeboats contributed to the high death toll. The sinking of the Titanic prompted significant changes in maritime safety regulations, including requirements for more lifeboats and improved communication procedures at sea.
