Well, I'll shoot.
Which European ruler used a crown fashioned to the likeness of a goat's head?
 
Civking, not "preferably" no Net or book searches, none at all :)
 
Yes its editor not king
 
My apologies. The late hour is affecting my literary skills :p
 
Oooo! I have another question :D
 
For some reason, I'm thinking Austria did that at the end of World War I to keep the Italians from capturing it.
 
My first thought was WWII in the south Pacific. I know that few capital ships were sunk directly by enemy action, most were scuttled afterward (usually by torpedo fire).
 
I think I have very vague image of it being USA in the pacific to block some strait. However it seems very unlikely, since Americans would then surely know this.
 
The French to stop the Germans getting it? Although I seem to remember that we did that.
The RN bombed and shelled a number of French shis (Mers-el-Kebir [sp?]), the French also scuttle a large part of the fleet on their own (Toulon), but that was done by the crews themselves.

Was it a flagship at the time of the sinking (i.e. it wasn't an old ship sunk in training)?
