I have chosen to write about Titanic. I would like to find out what actually happened and why.
First am I going to find out what Titanic is, how many or what was aboard, what happened to it, what went wrong and why did it all happen.

It was going from Southampton to the New York Pie. It was built in 1909 and it took 3000 men two years to build it. Titanic had her maiden voyage in April 1912. It was a very popular ship, because it was the biggest and most luxuriously ship at the time and the rumors said that it could not
