titanic history

how did the sinking of the titanic effect american history/ culture?

i know it made better safety requirments for aquatic vessels, but how else did it alter american culture/ society and history?

I think it affected America and England in many ways. We broke our system of valuing people based on wealth greatly that night when we realised how many people, children, died because they weren’t thought to be human. We have learned to not trust whatever the media sells to us, that no piece of machinery is ever fool-proof. We’ve used TITANIC again and again as an example to how things have went so wrong because of many little disasters. TITANIC brought many people together in the fact that people realised that they *all* lost someone, and embraced each other, not caring whether they were steerage or first class or second class. Not only did it make better safety requirements for aquatic vessels, but it proved to us that no matter how modern or how well-equipped a ship is, there is ALWAYS the risk that she will sink and you must ALWAYS be prepared for that.
