Armada is the Spanish word for a fleet of ships. The Spanish Armada was a fleet of 150 ships with 29,000 men. It was put together by the Spanish in 1588 to invade England. Its defeat was a major blow to Spain. The event can be seen as signaling the end of the dominance of Spain and the Spanish Empire and the rise of the importance of England and the British Empire.
