History
Jutland was the only major fleet engagement to take place during the First World War, and indeed the only time in history in which columns of great dreadnought battleships fought each other. In spite of terrible losses of life, the battle did nothing to change the strategic situation in northern European waters, in fact, it simply confirmed Britain's command of the seas and her ability to enforce the blockade which was eventually to lead to Germany's downfall.
