About the ship
After building small ships equipped with steam engines, Germany began producing warships featuring turbines. During World War I, SMS Dresden, the lead ship of the new class, saw action in the Battle of Coronel as part of von Spee's squadron and in the Battle of the Falkland Islands, where she was the only German warship to escape destruction. Dresden raided the South Atlantic and Pacific until she was intercepted by British cruisers. In the battle that followed, the ship was scuttled, and the crew escaped to be interned in Chile for the duration of the war.
