On this day, 29 October 1918, during the night, sailors in the German Navy refused an order to attack the British in the North Sea. The order was given five times, but each time the sailors resisted, despite 1,000 mutineers being arrested. Over the coming nights the rebellion spread, paralysing the imperial fleet, and led to a revolution and the end of World War I.
