British Victory at the Battle of Copenhagen

April 2nd, 1801 223 years ago

In the Battle of Copenhagen, a British Royal Navy squadron, led by Captain Nelson, faced a smaller Dano-Norwegian Navy. The British forces managed to achieve victory despite high losses, primarily due to the hastily organized nature of the Danish fleet. This battle forced Denmark to withdraw from the Second League of Armed Neutrality, thus altering naval dynamics in the region.
