  1. Dreaadnaught also helped create the first arms control treaty. Countries competed to expand their Navies with ever larger battleships and accordingly larger construction costs. The costs to build baattleships threatened to bankrupt countries unless they could agree on some formula that placed restrictions on the construction of battleships. The Naval Treaty negotiated by US, Great Britain, France, Japan and the US. The Bretton Woods agreement on the size and number of battleships rrepresented to first international arms limitation agreement. It was all set in motion by HMS Dreadnought and the competition to build increasing numbers of powerful battleships modeled on the design of HMS Dreadnought. HMS Dreadnought also created the enormous demand for fuel oil.
