Philip II of Spain declared war on England in 1585, primarily due to Elizabeth I's support for Protestant rebels in the Netherlands and her assistance to privateers attacking Spanish ships. This conflict escalated into the Anglo-Spanish War, which included the famous confrontation between the Spanish Armada and the English fleet in 1588.
