Spanish Armada
The Spanish Armada was when a huge navy of Spanish ships went over to England and got crushed: by mother nature mostly. It was devestating to the Spanish.
Defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588. You're welcome.
It was known in Great Britain as the Spanish Armada. (Spanish: Grande y Felicísima Armada, literally "Great and Most Fortunate Navy").
the defeat of the spanish armada by the british navy gave Britain superiority over the oceans, and therefore the world.
There was no impact. It was BEFORE the English began to have colonies in the 1600's.
The results of the battle of the Spanish Armada in 1588 might have increased enthusiasm for English colonization because of the dangers that still faced England (or, Great Britain) after the battle was won. Despite the defeat of the Spanish, there were continued hostilities, and the Spanish would continue to plan movements against the English homeland even to the point of inciting religious-based unrest. For some, escape to the New World could easily have seemed a desirable alternative to remaining in harm's way.
No. The Spanish Armada was a fleet of naval vessels sent by the king of Spain in an attempt to conquer Britain in the late 16th century. It failed.
