I'm working on an AH titled "Rise of Imperial France: Through the 19th Century and Beyond". While I know a lot about the 19th century, one of the few fields I still don't know too much about is the navies of the 19th century. Could any of you guys here on ah.com give me a general list of the top five navies in like, the 1810's to the 1850's or so, and include a brief explanation of why?
Thanks!
