What warship in history had armor making up the greatest percentage of its empty displacement - both overall, and for each type of armor (e.g. iron, compound, homogenous nickel steel, Harvey, Krupp non-cemented, Krupp cemented)?

@BlindMansRevenge2002 They did entertain the idea; the earlier designs for what became the Lexingtons had ten 14-inch guns in a Pensacola-esque triples-over-twins layout. Problem was, Congress wouldn't give them enough money to built both battleships and battlecruisers, so they had to go with just battleships until Congress finally opened the floodgates late in WWI, by which time things had gone up to 16-inch guns.
