November 1853 CE

Tsar Nicholas has responded by dispatching warships that destroy the entire Ottoman fleet at Sinop on November 30, 1853; it is the last major naval battle involving sailing warships.

This makes it possible for Russia to land and supply its forces on the Turkish shores with relative ease.
