The “Titanic” case

The "Titanic" case refers to the tragic sinking of the RMS Titanic on April 15, 1912, after hitting an iceberg during its maiden voyage from Southampton to New York City. Over 1,500 passengers and crew lost their lives, making it one of the deadliest maritime disasters in history. The disaster raised significant questions about maritime safety, leading to changes in regulations, including improved lifeboat requirements and iceberg monitoring. The Titanic is often associated with human error, overconfidence in technology, and class disparities, as many first-class passengers survived while many from lower classes did not.
