Description

Round format:
R1 - Arguments
R2 - Rebuttals
R3 - Defence and conclusion

Definitions:
Theoretically - “In a way that relates to the theory of a subject or area of study rather than its practical application”
The Battle Of Jutland - “ The Battle of Jutland (German: Skagerrakschlacht, the Battle of Skagerrak) was a naval battle fought between Britain's Royal Navy Grand Fleet, under Admiral Sir John Jellicoe, and the Imperial German Navy's High Seas Fleet, under Vice-Admiral Reinhard Scheer, during the First World War. ” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Jutland)
Victory - “ An act of defeating an enemy or opponent in a battle, game, or other competition”

Concession or full forfeiture is immediate loss.

Why is this debate called a micro debate? Seems pretty huge to me.

3-DAY WARNING......Cay-OOOO-gah!

Disagree,this reaffirmed British naval superiority and continued their blockade which devastated Germany

Sure, Britain took more casualties but the Royal Navy could have easily recovered
