21 Okt 1588 Jahr - Spanish Armada attack Fails (1588)

Beschreibung:

The Spanish Navy is sent to end Protestantism in England and the
Republic of the Netherlands. This armada is hit by a massive storm and
half of the fleet is sunk before it reaches the English and Dutch navies.
The surviving Spanish ships are defeated by Queen Elizabeth’s navy. As
a result, England becomes the most powerful naval force in Western
Europe and both England and The Dutch Republic remain Protestant and
free of Philip II’s rule.
