Yesterday i was searching for some info and got to realize that there are huge pieces of lacking info in some wiki pages :

The Anglo-Portuguese is the eldest in the world:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglo-Portuguese_Alliance

Portugal was also called Lusitania due to itīs ancient peoples.

There was an English ship that was called the RMS Lusitania, to honor the name of that ally.

So why isnīt it stated here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RMS_Lusitania

I now itīs had a tragic finish and this wiki is very complete and accurate, but why the ship is called Lusitania isnīt stated here.

Not English, British. The John Brown yard it was built in, in Scotland, is a part of Great Britain, as is England.
