Titanic held some of the wealthiest people in the world. On
the 14th April 4days into its maiden voyage Titanic hit an ice

over one thousand people still onboard. Carpathia arrived on
the scene of the sinking, where she brought aboard an
estimated 705 survivors.
Setting

The route the Titanic took was to set sail in Belfast and go
to Southampton shortly after midnight. Then they left
Southampton and arrived at Cherbourg. From there the
ship arrived at Queens town County Cork. When it left
Queens town they were supposed to go to New York
City.But they hit an ice-burg and it sank.
The
capt ain
The captain of the titanic was called captain Edward Smith.He
was Born on January 27th 1850, in Hanley. On the night
the Titanic sank the captain went to bed because he was
upset.He died on the 15 April 1912 in the Atlantic Ocean and
died while the Titanic was sinking. He was aged 62.
Danger-
ice
It was dark at night when the Titanic came across ICE. While it was
trying to turn it crashed into the side of the boat and water began to
fill up inside the Titanic.When the water finally got in all the air
compartments it eventually started to float up and broke in half.While
all this was in progress the killer ice-burg was floating peacefully at
the top of the water.
Disaster

Titanic was in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and was estimated
to have 2,224 people on board. The Titanic hit an ice burg at
23:40pm on Sunday 14th April 1912.Two hours later at 02:20 on
Monday 15th April it sank. After the Carpathia rescued the Titanic
with the survivors and became famous.The Carpathia was in World
War One and was sunk in the Antlantic Ocean.
Life

lifeboats were used between 12:40–2:10 am. There
were 2,223 people on board. The Titanic could
only take 1,178 people, even though there were
about 2,223 on board.

t oll
There were more than 1,500 people that died on the Titanic.
Titanic now lies at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. There
were 360 first class passengers. There were a total of
305 second class passengers,800 third class passengers
and 903 crew and stewards.
The

The Titanic was known as one of the greatest disasters in
modern times.John Jacob Astor was the richest man
on the ship.He too went to his death with an unborn
baby. The Carpathia
Rescued the survivors on the Titanic.
Legac
y
Titanic’s survivors arrived in New York at around 8:00 PM on April
18th,1912, almost three days after sinking of the Titanic.It was obvious
that very few 3rd class passengers survived because they where at the
bottom of the ship and couldn't get to the top.After the Titanic sank
people went down searching for itright away.They couldn't find it
because the technology wasn't as good in those days.
