Spanish Espana Dreadnought

Spain’s España class comprised compact dreadnought battleships ordered before the First World War. Their relatively small size reflected financial and industrial limits compared with the larger capital ships built by major naval powers. The ships served into a troubled period of Spanish history, with losses and changing names complicating their individual careers. España, Alfonso XIII, and Jaime I were built with British technical involvement. Their limited size reflected Spanish financial and dockyard constraints. The ships had difficult later careers, and the Spanish Civil War divided the fleet. Their original design predates that conflict by more than two decades. Their size reflected limited national resources.
