Spanish Armada

No, Phillip II is not the same person as the Spanish Armada. The Spanish Armada is not even a person. It was a fleet of ships sent to England in 1588 to overthrow Elizabeth I and put Philip II in the throne.

Because England was in war with Spain Queen Elizabeth the first sent Francis Drake to defeat the Spanish fleet caleed the Spanish Armada which was heading to invade England but because of Sir Francis Drake's circumnavigation he defeated the spanish

Of course. In fact, one large advantage to England during the conflict was that her ships could dash in to local ports and replenish their supplies and ammunition, while the Armada, so far from home, could not. In fact, the running out of ammo and drinking water were major factors in the suffering of the Spanish.

Hawkins and Drake returned their ships to their Queen and received the heroes' welcomes they deserved.

169 spanish soldiers fought

absolutely not. if the crime is bad enough, he can go to jail. ifit is just small he will just pay a fine

Spain has had many queens and kings over time. Some of these are Charles I, Philip II, Ferdinand IV, Joseph I, Isabella II, and Amadeo I.

The Armada was defeated in 1588. The Fleet reached Gravelines off the Spanish Netherlands where they were defeated by an English Naval force. The Spanish withdrew and sailed north but were again disrupted by sever weather. 24 vessels were wrecked on the coasts if Ireland. Out of 130 ships that sailed from Spain, 50 failed to return

Philip II was a Catholic. Spain is a Catholic country

Henry VIII was dead by the time the Armada attacked. In any case, being English, he would not have been a member of the Spanish forces.

It would have to be either the Baja Trail or the Yucatan Road.

Conquistadors!

Yes and without ever coming within range of the armada. Although it would probably take a while...... And they would have to come in RANGE of the armada, or else they couldn't hit it. A missile-equipped frigate would not have to come in SIGHT of the armada, however.

The English sea dogs had smaller faster ships than those belonging to the Spanish Armada. They were able to maneuver them into better positions. Also, the English guns could fire from a longer distance. The sea dogs were also close enough to home ports, they could go back and restock their gunpowder and cannonballs. The Spanish Armada and the crew were already suffering from bad storms and countless deaths from diseases.

Philip disliked and distrusted the colonists,who he saw as interfering in political and religious matters of his people,and put together a tribal alliance with the objective of attacking colonial settlements.

The main cause was the European's horrible treatment of the native people, despite the natives original welcoming attitude that pretty much saved the Pilgrims.

The results of the battle of the Spanish Armada in 1588 might have increased enthusiasm for English colonization because of the dangers that still faced England (or, Great Britain) after the battle was won. Despite the defeat of the Spanish, there were continued hostilities, and the Spanish would continue to plan movements against the English homeland even to the point of inciting religious-based unrest. For some, escape to the New World could easily have seemed a desirable alternative to remaining in harm's way.

The Golden Hind was not used during the Spanish Armada. The final voyage was in 1580 after Drake's circumnavigation. The vessel remained on public exhibition in Deptford and was there for 100 years, eventually rotting away

I myself cannot give details of the Battle of St. George's Caye as it is popularly known, but see Emory King's History of Belize (3 vols), paper, for details and further references. If I recall correctly, against the Spanish Armada the British and the settlers had 2 frigates and a few floating gut rafts. The Spanish had many deaths due to illness and withdrew leaving the battle outcome a draw. I believe O'Neil was the commander of the Spanish fleet, which then returned to Bacalar in what is now southern Yucatan. There is a contemporary account printed in a Jamaican newspaper which may be cited in King's work.

It was given this name by non Spaniards, a derisive term, a mocking term

1588. English naval forces (with some help from bad weather) defeated the Spanish forces. The battle was won, not the actual Armada. The fleet was sunk or scattered by bad weather. Some ships limped back home.

It was defeated and many of its ships were sunk in gales on the coasts of Scotland and Ireland.

After declining to attack the British fleet enroute to pick up an army, the Armada anchored at Calais. A night attack scattered the ships and led to a one-sided battle the following day. Most of the Armada could not reach friendly lands, and ships were battered by North Sea storms as they sought to circle westward for their return to Spain. As many as half of its ships were wrecked and many men were captured and killed in Ireland. Still more crewmen were lost to starvation and disease.

The Spanish Armada tried to attack England through the Rocky Coast of Ireland, but they failed. The ships of the Spanish Armada were destroyed when they hit the Rock of the Rocky Coast of Ireland.

A particular defensive shape to keep the English fleet out.
