The King of Spain, Philip II, was a Catholic and began the naval war against England in 1588. He sent a huge war fleet to England for several reasons: A. To safeguard Spanish merchant ships and Spain's colonies against English raids; B. To depose the Protestant queen of England, Elizabeth I; and C. To restore Catholicism to England. The Spanish Armada met a huge storm that destroyed much of the King's fleet, and the English war ships ended the entire affair.
