It explains why ships developed, how early empires relied on shipping routes, and how tactics such as ramming and coordinated rowing shaped battles. The timeline highlights major milestones like the Phoenicians’ long-distance ships, Drebbel’s 1620 submarine, and the transition to later sea powers.",{"@graph":69,"@context":121},[70,84,104],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":57,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/general/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/fighting-at-sea-a-timeline/568614/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":98,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":99,"interactionStatistic":100},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/fighting-at-sea-a-timeline/568614.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"Mafia Boss","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-13",true,{"@type":101,"interactionType":102,"userInteractionCount":4},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":103},"ViewAction",{"@type":105,"mainEntity":106},"FAQPage",[107,113,117],{"name":108,"@type":109,"acceptedAnswer":110},"What early ship designs are described as the basic types warships developed from?","Question",{"text":111,"@type":112},"The text says warships developed from three basic types: flat rafts, dugout canoes made from hollow logs, and boats made from bark or animal skins.","Answer",{"name":114,"@type":109,"acceptedAnswer":115},"When and by whom was the first practical submarine built?",{"text":116,"@type":112},"The first practical submarine is described as being built by Dutch inventor Cornelis Drebbel in 1620 as a sealed rowboat powered by oars.",{"name":118,"@type":109,"acceptedAnswer":119},"How did ancient galleys fight in naval battles?",{"text":120,"@type":112},"Galleys were long and narrow, powered mainly by rows of oars.
