Trafalgar 200


 

Trafalgar 200 is a series of events in 2005 held mostly in the United Kingdom to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar, where a Royal Navy fleet lead by Admiral Nelson (who died in the battle) destroyed a joint Franco-Spanish fleet during the Napoleonic Wars. During the summer of 2005 there was the International Fleet Review, the first since 1977. Dinners and other commemorations focus on Trafalgar Day 21 October at HMS Victory, Trafalgar Square and other locations.
