Dividing the High Seas Fleet after Scapa Flow

What would have happened if the German High Seas Fleet had not been scuttled at Scapa Flow?

The victors would fight over the ships, with Britain especially concerned that rivals could gain both capital ships and access to German naval technology.

The victors would compete for the unscuttled High Seas Fleet because each major power would want ships for itself or seek to deny them to rivals. France could fill gaps in its capital-ship program with captured hulls. One suggested consequence is that Italy might complete the Francesco Caracciolo class to counter the French acquisitions. The discussion assumes that the German ships still reached Scapa Flow, giving Britain considerable influence over their allocation, particularly over a 15-inch-armed ship such as Bayern. Britain would also worry about technology transfer. Comparing German construction with existing practices could help another navy improve its later designs.
