Protected cruisers of Germany

edit

This topic encompasses all of the protected cruisers built by the Imperial German Navy in the 1880s and 1890s. They served overseas extensively and were involved in numerous incidents, including the seizure of Tsingtao, China. They were used for secondary duties during World War I and were all disposed of shortly thereafter. By the way, promoting this topic will require the merging of Wikipedia:Featured topics/Irene class cruisers. Parsecboy (talk) 00:49, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
