source: wikipedia: The RMS Lusitania was a Cunard Line ocean liner, that was built by the John Brown & Co. Ltd ship yard near Clydebank, Scotland. Lusitania then sailed on her maiden voyage on September 7, 1907 and reached New York City on September 13, 1907.

During World War I, when Britain and Germany were at war, on May 7, 1915 the Lusitania was torpedoed by a GermanU-Boat, the U-20. It sank within 18 minutes eight miles off of the Old Head of Kinsale, Ireland, killing 1,198 of the 1,959 people aboard. The sinking turned sentiments in neutral nations against Germany and helped provoke the 28;&<47;1918)">United States into entering the war two years later.
