Histórico
The High Seas Fleet (Hochseeflotte) was the battle fleet of the German Imperial Navy and saw action during the First World War. The formation was created in February 1907, when the Home Fleet (Heimatflotte) was renamed as the High Seas Fleet. In 1918, The High Seas Fleet was interned in Scapa Flow under the terms of the Armistice. It remained manned by reduced crews who successfully scuttled its ships in June 1919 when it was thought that the British intended to seize the fleet.
