Yes, England ended up in a war with Spain during Shakespeare's lifetime. The Spanish sent a huge fleet, the Spanish Armada, to assist in ferrying a Spanish army to England, but bad weather and persistent attacks from the English caused it to fail. This was in 1588 when Shakespeare was 24.

Shakespeare lived during the late 16th and early 17th centuries, a time when the fork was just beginning to be introduced in England. While it was common for people to eat with their fingers, forks were used more widely in continental Europe. It's possible that Shakespeare may have encountered a fork during his travels, but it was not a standard utensil at the time in England. Therefore, it's unlikely that he commonly used one while dining.
