Great Britain and Spain were very competitive during the 16th and 17th centuries. Great Britain wanted to settle colonies in North America to find gold and possibly the Northwest Passage. Both were top on the lists of Spain and England's "To Find" lists. If England found either first, then Great Britain would be rich and flourish.
