A dreadnought was a battleship of the early 20th century, of a type modelled after the revolutionary HMS Dreadnoughtof 1906. Dreadnoughts were distinguished from previous battleships, known as pre-Dreadnoughts, by an 'all-big-gun' armament and by the use of steam turbines for propulsion.
The Dreadnoughts was created in 2007.
The España class was a series of three dreadnought battleships. They were the only dreadnoughts ever built in Spain or operated by the Spanish Navy, and the smallest dreadnoughts ever built.

The hulls of these great ships were iron, armored with steel.

The original HMS Dreadnought of 1905 had a displacement of over 18,000 tons which made it a large ship for the time, but its length was comparable to a destroyer of today. Other countries began building their own dreadnoughts, many of them larger and more imposing. Spain, an empire in decline, built the smallest dreadnoughts, but any of the dreadnoughts would be dwarfed by a World War 2 battleship.

Germany's first dreadnoughts were of the four ships of the Nassau class, launched in 1908.
Britain built 29 ships, Germany built 17. So that makes 46
Britain started building dreadnoughts because they needed to fight for the war and needed protection.
By the outbreak of World War I in 1914, Britain had 29 dreadnoughts, while Germany had 17. The dreadnought battleship, introduced in the early 20th century, represented a significant shift in naval warfare due to its heavy firepower and speed. This naval arms race was a key aspect of the tensions leading up to the war.
Dreadnaughts were large warships equiped with heavy guns, they were basically flaotign fortresses that could be moved almost everywhere in the world reachable by water.
