French battleship Vérité
''Vérité'' was a pre-dreadnought battleship of the ''Liberté'' class built by the French Navy. She had three sister ships: ''Liberté'', ''Justice'', and ''Démocratie''. ''Vérité'' was laid down in April 1903, launched in May 1907, and completed in June 1908, over a year after the revolutionary British battleship made ships like ''Vérité'' obsolete. She was armed with a main battery of four guns, compared to the ten guns of the same caliber mounted on ''Dreadnought''.
''Vérité'' took the French President on a goodwill trip to Russia in 1908 and visited America in September 1909. In September 1911, she was damaged by the explosion that destroyed her sister ''Liberté'' in Toulon. At the outbreak of World War I in August 1914, she covered troop convoys from North Africa to France along with the rest of the French Mediterranean Fleet. She spent the rest of the war based at Corfu and later Mudros, without seeing any action at either location. After the end of the war, she was stricken from the naval register and broken up for scrap in 1922.
