Why didn't King Philip attack Persia?
You are probably asking about King Phillip II of Spain and the Invincible Armada. He built his boats in Spain and then sent them to his colony in the Netherlands. Each of his boats had more firepower than the English boats. The wood was not as good. They had nowhere near the maneuverability. The English boats simply would not get into the position where the Spanish cannon could shoot them. Instead, the English boats sailed all over the place and turned the Spanish boats to toothpicks. Then the Spanish Admiral decided to sail around Scotland and attack from a different direction. When he attempted to sail around Scotland, his armada ran into a storm and the rest of his fleet turned to toothpicks. His sailors manned the lifeboats and rowed for shore. They became loyal citizens of Scotland.
There was a King Phillip's War against New England settlers. King Phillip was an Indian Chief. He decided too many people were moving to America. He attacked the settlers, burned their crops, and killed a number of people. The settlers counterattacked. They burned the Indians' crops, killed many people, and burned many villages. Both sides faced the winter without food supplies. However, the settlers sent to England for more food, guns, and ammunition. The Indians had no supply bases. The settlers did not starve. Many Indians starved to death. The next year the war continued. The war ended with King Phillip dead and the area that housed the Indians open to settlement.
