You are definetely talking to the right person. i did a reasearch project on the titanic. it is definetely the most interesting topic to do a report on. well lets see, i could go on forever, but i will give you some real basic facts to start with:
~In 1907 lord pirrie and j. bruce ismay decided to build 3 ships
~Titanic’s maiden voyage started in South Hampton, England and finished in New York City. The ship hit an iceberg four hundred miles south of Newfoundland, and it sank three hours later. Over one thousand, five hundred people died on this maiden voyage of Titanic. There are numerous different theories as to why the ship could have sank. One theory says that it was believed to sink because the iceberg hit an “unlucky” part of the ship. Another theory says it was believed to sink because of a human error. A recently found reason was the construction of the ship. Women and children were always put on lifeboats first. It was a traditional rule at sea. The captain of the ship along with its workers were notified about the icebergs where they would be traveling. The Titanic sunk at eleven fourty p.m. on April 14, 1912.
~Women and children were always put on lifeboats first. Only half of the people were guaranteed to live because of the number of lifeboats.
Also, this website is really helpful as well:

Just to correct Megan, the Titanic struck the iceberg at 11:40pm; it didn't sink until about 2:15am.
And, as the others have said, don't ask us to do your work for you. You have access to the Internet and libraries, make use of them and do your own research.

It is called a RESEARCH PAPER, so why don't you try and do some RESEARCH. Research doesn't mean ask someone to do it for you or tell you the answers. Look it up yourself!
