Jutland was the largest naval battle in World War I and the third historic action between battleships (steel-armored battleships) following the battles of the Yellow Sea (1904) and Tsushima in 1905 during the Russo-Japanese War. It was also the last major battle in which two squadrons exchanged direct fire between their line ships. In the analysis we will study whether it would have been possible for this battle to have been more decisive, such as the naval battle of Trafalgar in 1805, as well as that which established an undisputed British dominance of the sea for the remainder of the war on the European continent. We will understand why the Great Fleet lost the opportunity to decisively defeat the High Seas Fleetn at the Battle of Jutland. For this, we will follow the hypotheses: what if the principle of naval warfare of the Concentration of Forces had been more pursued; and if better Communications had been obtained; and if better Coordination had been achieved between the preparatory and main maneuvers.
