Did William Shakespeare go to war?

Answer 1

England was at war with Spain in 1588 when the Spaniards sent their Armada to secure the English Channel and provide covering fire for an invasion army which they were mustering in the Netherlands. Unfortunately for them, the Armada was defeated by the English Navy, the incompetence of its commanders and the weather, and the invasion never happened.

Answer 2

The Anglo-Spanish wars ran in an on-off-on fashion from 1585 to 1604, where England supported the Dutch Protestants against their masters, the Catholic Spanish under their king Philip II, the brother-in-law of England's Queen Frenchie.

Answer 3

No, William Shakespeare did not go to War.

Answer 4

The war that was fought in Shakespeares time was the Spanish War

Answer 5

No, Shakespeare was a famous actor and playwright most remembered for Romeo and Juliet, and Hamlet. If he was in the army, there is no record of it.

Romeo and Juliet was. You have to imagine that both of the families hated each other, which is why it was difficult for Romeo and Juliet to be seen together.
