Great Byzantine-American War, 1794-1814

Admittedly, Constantinople – hoping for peaceful relations with her neighbors – had sorely neglected her navy. Therefore, the government’s first act of war in 1796 was to commission a battleship (“Firenzia”), and rushed production along so as to be able to intercept any American invasion force.
