Who’s to blame for the Titanic’s demise?

The sinking of the Titanic is a complex event with many contributing factors. Ultimately, the blame for the tragedy rests with the White Star Line, the company that owned and operated the ship.

The White Star Line was responsible for the Titanic's design and construction, and there were several design flaws that contributed to the disaster. The ship was not equipped with enough lifeboats to accommodate all of the passengers, and the bulkheads that divided the ship into sections were not high enough to prevent the ship from flooding and sinking.

The White Star Line was also responsible for the crew's actions on the night of the sinking. The crew failed to take proper precautions to avoid an iceberg, such as reducing speed and posting lookouts. They also failed to properly respond to the warning of an iceberg, and did not alert the passengers of the danger until it was too late.

The White Star Line also failed to properly train its crew members in emergency procedures, such as how to launch the lifeboats and how to organize and manage an evacuation. The crew's lack of training and experience in dealing with such a situation likely contributed to the chaos and confusion that ensued.

In conclusion, the White Star Line is to blame for the Titanic's demise. The company was responsible for the design and construction of the ship, as well as the crew's actions and training. If the ship had been designed and operated differently, the tragedy may have been avoided.
