Why did the Spanish captains chose to sail north around Scotland rather than take the more direct route home back through the English channel?
The Spanish took the route around Scotland not because they chose to, but because the weather forced them to, this resulted in pretty much all the Spanish fleet being lost, so the weather saved England
How did the English prepare for the spanish armada?
In 1588 (and even for several years prior), in anticipation of their intended invasion of the British Isles, Spanish leaders prepared their "Armada Invincible" in various ways. The gathering of the ships themselves, supplies, the crews, and various support personnel was one significant part of the massive undertaking. The development of a tactical plan for the fleet, in respect to the sailing route and to anticipated clashes with the English navy, was itself carefully formulated. Perhaps the most critical element, coordination with the invasion-army, stationed in Flanders and therefore needing to be collected by the fleet sailing from Spain, was also undertaken.

What happens after the Spanish break up in the Spanish armada?
What happens where? To whom? Some of the armada ships, for example, struggled on up the east coast of England and round the north of Scotland, then south via the west coast and Ireland. From those that were not wrecked en route, some survivors were rescued and chose to live where they had become stranded. I believe some even made it back to Spain. Clearly, the outcome had negative effects on the Spanish, and positive ones on the English, national morale.
How did Elizabeth solve the religious problems in England?
England under Elizabeth was basically Protestant, but it followed a moderate. Protestantism that kept most people satisfied.Elizabeth tried to keep Spain and France from becoming too powerful by balancing power. If one nation seemed to be getting more powerful, England would support the weaker nation. Philip II of Spain wanted to invade England, partly to overthrow Protestantism. His advisers told him that the people of England would rise against Elizabeth when the Spaniards arrived. In 1588, Philip ordered preparations for an armada (a fleet of warships) to invade England. But the Spanish were no match for the English. After a number of battles, the Spanish armada sailed back to Spain by a northern route around Scotland and Ireland. The ships were pounded by storms, and many sank.
First english explorer to sail around the world?
The first Englishman and second individual to sail around the world was Sir Francis Drake taking him three years (1577-1580) and marked the beginning of England's challenge to Spain's global domination. The capture of several Spanish treasure ships en route made Drake a national hero and he was paid £10,000 and knighted at Deptford in 1581. He continued, with the blessing of Elizabeth I, to harass and capture Spanish shipping to add to England's coffers which ultimately lead to the failed Spanish invasion attempt with the Armada in 1588.

When did the spanish armada get defeated?
The Armada suffered from poor planning, poor timing, and inadequate leadership. The smaller British fleet was able to scatter the armada and prevent its planned invasion. The disaster was completed by storms that wrecked many more ships. The Spanish Armada was a fleet assembled and dispatched by King Philip II of Spain in attempt to invade England in 1588. His attempt was unsuccessful. Queen Elizabeth I of England held the defeat of the armada as one of her greatest achievements, assisting the decline of the Spanish Empire. The armada had a mission of both political and religious aims. King Philip, the leader of the Roman Catholic Spain, was not able to stop a revolt by his Protestant subjects in the Netherlands, a revolt which began in 1566 and was aided by Protestant England. By 1586, Phillip had decided that he could not defeat the Dutch until he had defeated England first. Long time religious rivalry between Spain and England was hoped to be resolved by King Philip in the dethroning of Queen Elizabeth, reconverting England to Catholicism. The plan for conquering had begun. This plan consisted of the coordination of a fleet to sail from Spain and an army from the Netherlands to create a simultaneous invasion of England. His force of 130 ships and more than 30,000 men was led by Alonso Peréz Guzmán, duke of Medina-Sidonia. England became aware of the Spanish plans, attacking the armada at Cádiz, Spain in 1587, and succeeding in delaying it for a year. By July of 1588, the armada was spotted off the coast of England. On July 28, a bold night attack by forces under Sir Francis Drake disorganized the anchored armada, and several warships were sunk in a subsequent battle off Gravelines. The destruction of the fleet was continued by the North Sea weather, which wrecked ships on the coast of Scotland, and many more in gales off western Ireland. Some of the surviving crews died of hunger or disease en route back to Spain. In all, more than 60 of the original 130 ships were lost.
What was the most important trade route for India?
The "Silk Road" was the overland route from the Far East to the Mediterranean. There was disruption of trade around 1400 with the breakup of the Mongol Empire. Near the end of the 15th century, the Portugese began seeking maritime routes around Africa, culminating in Vasco Da Gama's first successful route trip voyage to India from 1497 to 1499. The Portugese armada that followed in 1502 was as hostile to Muslim Arabs of India as the Spanish had been to the natives of America.
