1. luck- when the armada were on their way back, the wind was wrong so they had to go all around Britain. they lost a lot of ships.

2. bad leadership- the proper leader died, and they found a new one, who was good onland, but suffered from sea sickness!

3. the English ships were more manoeuvrable, and faster.

4. the English had better cannons. they could fire every 10 mins, but the spanish ones took 1 hour.
