How did the Armada work in Elizabeth I's favor?

Answer 1

The Spanish Armada was made up of large and unwieldy warships. A major storm blew up and the ships were not able to maneuver in battle. The Spanish Armada was essentially destroyed and Britain became the dominant power in Europe.

Answer 2

It made Elizabeth look really strong so that all the other countries were very impressed. It showed everyone that she did not need a powerful husband. It gave the catholics no real chance to rebel. It stopped most of the other countries from attacking after she had destroyed the Spanish. It stopped the majority of the courtiers from endlessly bugging her about a husband too.
