    The first navigators to circumnavigate Africa: Carthage (destroyed by Rome) King of the Mediterranean: Greece The city-state of Athens (destroyed by Rome).

    First generation of navigators: Portugal (the discovery of the New World).

    First Maritime Empire: Spain (conquest of the New World).

    The sun never sets: England (annihilated the Spanish armada)Sea coachman: Holland (** was suppressed by England) The English navy was invincible for a long time after the defeat of the Netherlands...

    It wasn't until Germany's High Seas Fleet during World War I was able to compete with it in some areas.

    During World War II, England's maritime power was devastated due to the outstanding performance of the German submarine forces. Since then, it has been sluggish.

    Once Britain and now the United States.

    A naval power requires a timely naval force projection capability and a strong international influence on a considerable scale.

    So far, only the United Kingdom and the United States have fulfilled this condition.

    Although China has had a strong navy for several periods, it has not carried out large-scale naval force projection operations, and its international influence has often stopped at the political and economic levels, so it cannot be regarded as a real naval power for the time being, but can only be regarded as a naval power. However, the future will remain to be seen.

    The absolute hegemon at sea is definitely the United States, because the United States has dozens of aircraft carriers, and basically all of them are of the rank of more than 100,000 tons. In other countries, there is basically none. Russia's North Sea Fleet is also powerful, but only with destroyers and submarines.

    Britain and France are also barely called naval powers, but they are far from the United States and Russia.

    The first was Great Britain, which established itself as a maritime power in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. His naval strength is very strong. And then there was Germany, which was also very strong militarily.

    Professional Historical Research After the opening of the new shipping route in the century, the world hegemons that appeared successively were: the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom. The Netherlands was a commercial empire, and Britain was a colonial hegemon.

    If the landlord sees in some information: Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, France, the United Kingdom. It is necessary to pay attention to screening, such as Spain and France, at most, they are only the hegemons of the European continent for a period of time, and they cannot reach the world level.

    In addition, the owner specially mentioned the ocean, which only refers to the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. Of course, the United States is even more so.

    In other words, even if Germany fought all over Europe in World War II, it could not be regarded as a maritime hegemon.

    The largest intercontinental sea in the world - the Mediterranean.

    The Mediterranean Sea is the world's largest intercontinental sea, located between Asia, Europe and Africa, with a length of about 4,000 kilometers from east to west, the widest point from north to south of about 1,800 kilometers, an area of about 2.5 million square kilometers, an average depth of about 1,600 meters, and a maximum depth of 4,594 meters. To the west of the Mediterranean Sea is the 21-kilometre-wide Strait of Gibraltar, which crosses the Atlantic Ocean; It is connected to the Red Sea by the Suez Canal in the southeast and exits the Indian Ocean through the Red Sea; The Northeast is connected to the Black Sea through the Dardanelles and the Bosphorus. The genus seas of the Mediterranean Sea include the Ionian Sea, the Adriatic Sea, the Aegean Sea, etc.

    In the Mediterranean, in addition to the two island countries of Malta and Cyprus and a number of other islands, it is surrounded by 17 countries, including Spain, France, Monaco, Italy, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Yugoslavia, Albania, Greece, Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Palestine, Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Algeria and Morocco.

    The Mediterranean Sea is the transportation hub of Europe, Asia and Africa, and is a shortcut between the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Oceans. The shortcut from Western Europe to the Indian Ocean through the Strait of Gibraltar - the Mediterranean Sea - the Suez Canal - the Red Sea is more than 10,000 kilometers less than going around the Cape of Good Hope in southern Africa, and this route has become the busiest sea route in the world. Because of its economic, political and military importance, the Mediterranean has long been a place of contention among the great powers.

    In order to protect the country's sovereignty and security, littoral countries have put forward proposals one after another"The Mediterranean Sea is the Mediterranean Sea of countries bordering the Mediterranean", demanding the complete withdrawal of the fleets and military bases of the military powers from the Mediterranean.

    The Mediterranean Sea is divided into two parts, east and west, with the Apennine Peninsula and Sicily Island and Tunisia in Africa as the boundary between the Apennine Peninsula and Sicily and Tunisia in Africa. The eastern Mediterranean is much larger than the western Mediterranean, and the seabed is rugged and varies in depth, from a few tens of meters at its shallowest point (as in the northern Adriatic Sea) to more than 4,000 meters at its deepest point (as in the Ionian Sea). In some places, the difference in water depth between the bow and stern of a sailing ship is as much as four or five hundred meters.

    The Mediterranean Sea is one of the strongest belts in the world. The underwater crust here is broken, and volcanoes are frequent, and the world-famous Vesuvius and Etna are distributed in this area.

    The Mediterranean climate is unique, with hot and dry summers and little rainfall, and warm, wet and moist winters. This climate causes the surrounding rivers to be flooded with rain in winter and dry up in summer. There are very few places in the world with this type of climate, according to statistics, less than 2% in total.

    Due to the special climate here, the German meteorologist Cobain divided the global climate and made it a special category, called the Mediterranean climate.

    Since the Mediterranean Sea is one of the largest intercontinental seas, the winters are warm and rainy, hotter and drier, the sea temperature is higher, and the evaporation is very vigorous
