The Spanish Armada was led by Duke Medina Sidonia, who commanded the fleet during its ill-fated campaign against England in 1588. Despite his noble status, he was not a seasoned naval commander, which contributed to the Armada's struggles. The mission aimed to overthrow Queen Elizabeth I and restore Catholic rule in England, but the fleet was ultimately defeated by a combination of poor weather, strategic miscalculations, and effective English naval tactics.
