Between 1793 and 1805 a series of naval battles fought against the new French Republic gained for Great Britain what historians later called the Empire of the Seas. This period of almost unrelieved blockade and battle culminating in Trafalgar is now viewed as one of the great turning points in history. It also saw the emergence of revolutionary fleet tactics by the British that exploited the disorganisation of their demoralised opponent's fleets.
