Both were colonial powers trying to monopolize trade and have the most colonies. Spain was the older world power, England was much younger and slowly usurping Spanish control. See the defeat of the Spanish Armada under Queen Elizabeth I.

The relationship between England and Spain was difficult due to conflicts over territory, trade, and religious differences. Both countries competed for overseas colonization, leading to confrontations such as the Spanish Armada's failed invasion of England. Religious tensions also played a role, with England breaking away from the Catholic Church during the Reformation, causing further strain on relations with Catholic Spain.
