Since we have covered a great deal about different aspects of Navy life how about we go over some of the worlds navies?

So the best place to start is with the word itself. According to Webster’s navy is as follows.

1. All of a nation's warships.
2. often Navy A nation's entire military organization for sea warfare and defense, including vessels, personnel, and shore establishments.
3. A group of ships; a fleet.

Its origins are as follow, Middle English navie, from Anglo-French, from Latin navigia, from navigare. It in turn was derived from the Greek words nafs and naus, used to describe boats, and related to the word, naut, for sailor. Like in the legend of Jason and Argonauts, and used to create the modern word astronaut or star sailor.

Over the next few days/weeks I am going to cover the basics of different navies, historical and contemporary.
