Whilst ships join battle today at a distance of over a thousand kilometers (over 600 miles), four centuries ago they confronted each other in deadly close-combat battles. In France, one ship was perfectly designed for that type of fighting: the galley. It originated in the Mediterranean 600 years BCE and was France’s combat weapon during the 17th century. • Extract from the documentary: Warships, 400 Years of History • Direction: Lionel Langlade • Production: ZED BONUM Productions • SPECIAL THANKS - • The video animations of the Fleur de Lis galley are the work of Bernard HUC. • ZED Production would like to thank him for this brilliant achievement. • SLICE wants to fill up your curiosity! • Accessible to anyone from anywhere at any time, this channel is your weekly dose of short docs about curious facts, discoveries, astounding info, unusual stories, weird, fun and instructive.
