==== The Nomad Class and the beginning of the 1900s ====
[[File:SSNomad.jpg|thumb|SS Nomad of 1899 (16,552 GRT)]]
By 1895, the King Ivan and King Miklos's sister ships were gaining more years on their record and more and more people were waiting to get rides on these flagship carriers. Red Star Line needed more carry space inside their ships to accommodate for the influx of passengers and cargo after their small economic boom in 1890. So, work began immediately on an intermediate class of steam liners that were much larger than ships of old. This intermediate class of ships was designated the Nomad Class and had the goal of keeping passenger quotas up whole also being both cheap for the line to make but luxurious for the people. It would also work to appeal the Tuvarian government so another loan could be gained for the use of a more massive ship in the future.
