The Battle of Zanzibar took place between the German Kaiserliche Marine and the British Royal Navy early in the First World War of 1914-1918. The German cruiser SMS Königsberg, while taking on coal in the delta of the Rufiji River (German East Africa), learned that a British cruiser—HMS Pegasus, which had been part of the Royal Navy's Cape Squadron sent to counter Königsberg—had put in at Zanzibar for repairs. Königsberg′s captain—Commander Max Looff—decided to attack Pegasus while she was in port.
