This category is for all the battles that took place at Sea. Other possible terms are: Naval battles, Nautical battles, and Naval engagements, Naval action, Nautical actions, and Nautical engagements. As in english a military engagement in the Air is most commonly called a Air battle, instead of an Aireal battle, it has been decided that, in name of common sense, this term would be the best available compromise.

This logic can also be followed in the (future) subCategory: River battles, instead of Fluvial battles. The second term is virtually unknown and almost never used.

It is the same logic with the (future?) Space battles, instead of Sidireal battles or spaceial battles.
