    My brother went to sea (US Navy, USS Barney) in the early 1980's and came home with many stories of how beautifully majestic the ocean could be, and how terrible it often was. Waves tossing your ship like a toy, men sick in their beds because the decks often seemed more vertical than not, cold food because the weather was too rough. Not often, but enough for you to both love and fear the sea. As for myself, I have stood upon the beach near Seaside, Oregon, and felt through the very earth beneath me, the thunder of the waves hammering the cliffs half a mile down the beach. I have watched the sky turn green, and then black, and felt the force of wind as it pushed the waves and rain ever onward, unstoppable, unyielding. It makes you feel small, when you look upon something so relentless, so timeless, so majestically awesome (in the true meaning of that word) that it swallows the earth, and hammers the stones to dust. You truly know the answer to the question, "which lasts longer, the Mountain or the Sea?"

    After the fiasco of the Invincible Armada, Elizabeth I wanted to take advantage of Spain's weakness to destroy its power. England, however, suffered its greatest catastrophe on the sea. The Counter Armada: this was the greatest Spanish naval victory over England that almost nobody counts. Of the 180 ships that had sailed to take Spain, 102 returned with many of their men infected by the plague suffered at sea and which they spread when they went ashore. Of the 27,667 men who had embarked, only 3,722 survived. This expedition - whose losses were double those of the Invincible Armada - made it the greatest naval catastrophe in the history of England.

    It is true, and thanks to that battle England was not occupied. But Spain never believed that the English defeated us. We always thought there was a little Royal Navy action, but it was the storms. In 1588, Spain was invading Germany, forcing the south and Palatinate to retain the Catholic religion. In 1589 we destroyed Drake's invincible fleet, sinking 80 ships. Elisabeth was so angry that she condemned Drake to be a lighthouse keeper. In 1590 Spain invades Paris, forcing the king of France to accept the Catholic religion. In 1595-96, Drake loses 5 battles in the Spanish Caribbean and dies. In 1596 and 1597 Spain sent two more fleets of more than 130 ships to invade the British Isles. Both were stopped due to storms. Still another fleet in 1718 was stopped by storms. And 1779-82, we sent another invasion fleet to England. But we were only able to make a naval blockade of England, capturing two British fleets of 24 and 55 ships (among them 39 war frigates), which sank the London stock exchange, and allowed Spain to give the Spanish dollar to the USA, and the independence. But the invasion was not possible. Amphibious invasions are always complicated. Philip II of Spain had already been king of England in 1554-58, when he married Mary Tudor, half-Spanish queen of England. If they had had a son, if there had not been 4 great storms... Spain invaded southern England in 1377, 1380-81 and 1411, with small ships. There are many factors. The Royal Navy did what it could, but they only knew of the movements of the Spanish fleet in 1588 and 1805 (before Trafalgar) not the other 8 invasion attempts.

    The storm was so violent that Spanish ships were driven north around the tip of Scotland and west of Ireland with ships being destroyed along the way. It is said some Spanish were washed up on the coast of Ireland, rescued by the Irish villagers and ended up intermarrying with Irish women. This is supposed to be where the "Black Irish" originated. Even in the 20th century people with light skin, blue eyes and black hair were saud to have Irish coloring.

    Imagine a movie where that same Philip II invades Germany in 1588, and Paris in 1590 (which makes one think that Elisabeth was an island) Imagine that Philip II arrives in England with a fleet commanded by the Duke of Alba, and becomes king of England (1554-58), upon marrying Mary Tudor, half-Spanish queen of England. And in the same movie you can include that Spain destroyed 80 ships of Drake's invincible fleet in 1589. You can also include that the English burned dozens of thousands of people at the stake as well, and that hundreds of thousands of people with other religions ( Catholics, Calvinists, Puritans...) had to flee to the 13 colonies, because they could not practice their religion. You can also add that women from England could not be actresses, while Spanish women were actresses and often theater entrepreneurs, as well as governors, admirals and the first women in Europe who went to university and were university professors. You can also include that the golden century of Spanish culture, leader in art, science, psychology, music and literature, was born thanks to Philip II of Spain. I know that film wouldn't win a Bafta award, but it's more real than this British film. I don't want to say that Philip II was an angel, but he was no worse than other kings of Europe.

    Why do these films skip the Counter-Armada? When the following year, in 1589, the Spanish defeated the English invasion of Spain and it was also a disaster, for the English this time. I think it would create more historical accuracy and nuance, that Elizabeth sweeped that under the rug. The war actually lasted between 1585 and 1605 and it ended in a draw and there was more to it than just the failed Spanish invasion.

    THE MYTH OF THE INVINCIBLE ARMADA The Spanish fleet that Philip II mustered is described as an 'invincible' Goliath against the little David of England's navy. Actually, it was the opposite. It was not even the largest fleet to have attacked England. The Spanish used around 130 ships, from war galleons to messenger ships and supply ships. Although the English navy was smaller, a large number of private and merchant ships were called up to create a force equal to that of the Spanish. And anyway, the invading fleet had been in trouble long before facing their English enemies. Shortly after leaving Lisbon, diseases attacked the crew, their food supplies rotted and they had very bad weather at sea. "We are very weak" All this forced them to stop in La Coruña to make repairs and provisions. The fleet commander wrote to Felipe confessing that "almost none of the members of the Navy have the knowledge or the ability to perform the tasks entrusted to them... we are very weak." But Philip said that the attack must continue anyway. The plan was for the Navy to sail down the English Channel to its narrowest point. There he was to meet an army of soldiers from the Netherlands led by the Duke of Parma, who were to be transported by barge to invade the county of Kent. However, before that the Spanish had to reach the Channel. Here they began to experience more problems. The first major casualties were self-inflicted: a crash and explosion led to the loss of two ships. Once the Spanish gained entry to the Channel, the next narrative stretch in the most popular accounts of history is Elizabeth I's moving speech to her men at Tilbury, on the north bank of the Thames. That famous piece of oratory, in which the queen tells the assembled troops that she may "have the body of a weak woman, but the heart and stomach of a king," has been dramatized in countless movies. Elizabeth is often shown riding a horse, dressed in white velvet or even armor. "I'll be her general," she tells her men. Isabel had devised the plan to address the troops while the Spanish were still in the Channel. However, when she did, the Navy was already facing defeat. Eleven days earlier, English warships had attacked the Spanish fleet while it was waiting in France to meet the Parma army. These burning ships caused the Spanish to panic, causing more accidents and losses. So when Elizabeth spoke her famous words at Tilbury, what was left of the Armada was already in retreat, racing to Ireland and Scotland so they could return home. And there, in the north, the mortal enemy of the Spanish was not Drake, Elizabeth I or the brave English sailors, but bad weather. Interestingly, the content and timing of Elizabeth I of England's speech have also "evolved" over time. The sources do not mention the famous "heart and stomach of a king" line until more than three decades after the event. But historians aren't sure she actually used those words. On the one hand, the defeat of the Armada did not bring victory in the war with Spain. In fact, that conflict lasted until the 17th century. On the other hand, the Spanish never saw what happened to the Armada as a significant setback. And that's because, in 1589, the English suffered an embarrassing or own naval disaster. That year, Drake led an attack known as the invincible English or Counterarmada, with the aim of destroying the rest of Felipe's fleet while it was undergoing repairs in Santander. It was a fiasco, in which 15,000 Englishmen were killed, and many of the 86 ships used in the attack were lost.

    Philip II was king of England in 1554-58, when he married Mary Tudor, half-Spanish queen of England. The problem is that the English supported the independence of the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxemburg and attacked our imperial territories in America and other places, sometimes without declaring war. That's why Spain sent 5 massive invasion fleets to the British Isles in 1588, 1596, 1597, 1718 and 1779-82 (in addition to the invasions of southern England in 1377, 1380-81 and 1411). The first 4 were stopped by storms (1588...). In the latter (1779-82) Spain made a naval blockade of England, capturing two British fleets of 24 and 55 ships, which sank the London Stock Exchange, and helped greatly in the independence of the USA. But the invasion was very complicated, and the French allies were not safe.

    @@KristianCapalik968 Well, the internet is changing things. Now everyone is knowing the importance of these Spanish victories. Irrelevant was England in the 16th-17th centuries. Spain invaded Germany in 1588, forcing the Palatinate and southern Germany to become Catholic. And in 1590 we invaded Paris, forcing France to be Catholic. This, together with the victory of 1589, makes us think that England exists thanks to the island. Spain began global expansion 200 years before England and France. It would not have been fair to say that Rome was irrelevant in the 16th century. Since then Italy has progressed a lot. Now all the countries of Europe are small countries. The United Kingdom reduced its size 144 times in the 20th century, and cannot compete with the great giants (USA, China, India, Russia or the European Union). Spain won decisive battles against the British in 1589, in 1741 (Cartagena de Indias, destruction of 50 British ships), 1779-82 Spanish blockade of England, capturing 2 British fleets of 24 and 55 ships, sinking the London Stock Exchange and allows Spain to give the Spanish dollar to the USA and independence. After Trafalgar 1805 (where we only lost 11 ships) Spain defeats the British in Argentina and Uruguay 1806-07, capturing the redcoats and British generals. In addition to defeating Nelson 3 times in 1797, capturing him in Tenerife. All these victories in the period in which Spain made its world legacy (1500-1800) allow Spanish to be the second mother tongue after Chinese, with 480 million mother tongue speakers. English: 380 million (40% born in parts of the USA that the British never controlled) All these victories in the 5 continents mean that there are 800 million additional Catholics, made by Spain (200 million in Europe and 100 million in Asia) 120 million of Anglicans. Furthermore, Spanish and Portuguese are the same languages in 89% of the words. The United Kingdom had a very slow imperial development, and was only able to surpass the territory of the Spanish empire in 1885, only to lose everything before 1960. But that served to make many colonies. At the time those colonies were going to ban English (like the ban on English in India in 1960) the USA was already the great power that emerged after WW2, and that saved the English legacy in the world. The colonies made English interesting for a few more decades, sponsored by the USA, as a studied language. So in some ways the Spanish and British empires were very successful.

    @@Gloriaimperial1 this is overall not true and very unhelpful in understanding the importance of the British empire. While it is true to say that England was less relevant than Spain in the 16th and 17th century, Spain simply never reached the level of relevance at its peak as the British did during theirs, which was mostly due to the impact of the Industrial revolution. When looking as to why the Spanish Armada defeat was so catastrophic, it is almost entirely due to its repercussions in the world order of importance and it is more nuanced than just a count on how many ships lost or whether England retaliated successfully or not. To simplify the ramifications of the Spanish Armada, King Philip the Second of Spain spent 11 Million Ducats on his famed fleet, the Spanish Armada failure coupled with troubles with the ottomans put Spain at a financial deficit as the gold extracted from the Americas was no longer covering for their mainland expenses, and Spain would ultimately never recover from this gold deficit with most of their world influence dwindling by late 17th/early 18th century. Regardless as to your opinion as to the importance of the Battle of Trafalgar, Spain did loose it and it not only lost but it lost as a satellite napoleonic state, the biggest repercussion of the Trafalgar victory was not the Spanish loss but the French disengagement in large scale naval challenges towards the Royal Navy. Indeed your point of “Spanish victories being erased from the narrative” is pretty weak, Spain and Britain continuously engaged in conflicts with very nuanced results, however given that you are speaking English and commenting about “misconceptions”, I’ll let you be the judge as to who had the most favourable outcomes. To your point of Spain being more influential due to population density of Spanish speakers, the easiest rebuttal is income inequality between the Anglo-sphere and the Hispanic one, while only accounting for 5% of the population, the Anglo-sphere accounts for 43% of the worlds wealth, Spanish speakers make up 8% and account for around 5% of the worlds wealth, quantity does not automatically mean wealth or political power. To put it simply, Britain was simply a larger empire that had more settler colonies than Spain, whom preferred extractionary colonies, not only that but Spain was a non-industrialised, mostly medieval empire at its peak, Britain was modern and industrialised. This meant that they had more access to resources which they used to advance in technology, military and economic growth which they shaped to their own benefit; the technology you used to write your comment such as a touch screen or the internet are British, military equipment such as radars, engines, tanks, and lasers are British, the current mixed economy that Spain itself operates with is…British. While it is true that Spain was most definitely influential during the 15th, 16th and mid 17th century, its influence cannot be compared to that Britain was sprung to due to its prowess in the Industrial revolution, it is simply factually untrue to imply that there was ever an event during the Spanish empire’s duration that could compare in terms of impact to the world and the present day.

    @@KristianCapalik968 It is very easy to talk about a medieval empire in the 16th-17th centuries. Although Spain made the first globalization of the world, ending the feudal era, with a leading golden century in art, science, politics, diplomacy and economy. The Spanish empire was as unmedieval as the territories of the Spanish empire in Italy, Germany, France, Belgium and the Netherlands. If you talk about America, it was the most indigenous place in the world in 1492. Now all Western countries. 5 of them have very high human development, among the 66 most developed countries in the world: Chile, Argentina, Costa Rica, Panama and Uruguay. You can't imagine what it's like to include a majority indigenous population in Western civilization. It took centuries for Rome to do that in Hispania, Gaul, Germany and Britain. The British simply gave up doing that in South Africa and India, and created social Darwinism and apartheid. Saying that the Roman Empire is worse than the USA, because it is medieval or primitive, compared to the USA is ridiculous. Rome was born before and died before. The Spanish empire was born 200 years before the British and French empires, and died before. Within 200 years the technology of China and India will be so powerful that today's Silicon Valley and NASA will be primitive (not to mention the Victorian British Empire). But it makes no sense to disqualify the influence of previous empires. You're just talking about a still photo. In 2050, China and India will be the leading world powers, with 2.8 billion inhabitants. The USA can do nothing to prevent it, with 330 million, nor Australia with 28 or Canada with 35. This same century, just with the rate of population growth, Latin America will have 3 times the population of the USA. They may be 2 and a half times poorer than the USA in the year 2100, and yet more powerful and influential. In the world there is now a process of development of previously poor lands. Now there is air transport, better and bigger and faster ships, Internet, air conditioning. The entire planet (with some exceptions such as Afghanistan or countries at war) grows, because they already know how to dominate their resources, their banks and their influences. Saying that the British empire is larger may be self-evident. But not much bigger. The Berlin conference of 1885, between friendly countries, made a world division. Then the British obtained, in 1900, 35 million km2 total. If you look at the Spanish explorations with the Treaty of Tordesillas, sanctioned by Rome, as a legal norm, Spain occupied 30 million km2. The British included in the British Empire the frozen islands of Canada, Africa where Livingston is lost or India with 560 independent princes. Then Spain can include the entire southern USA, where we discover the great plains, the great canyon of El Colorado and Vancouver Island. Just look at the name of the western states: California, Texas, Nevada, New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, Florida. We annexed the Portuguese empire. And we occupied Borneo, Papua New Guinea, Northern Taiwan with military bases. We even have a map of Hawaii (16th century) and a helmet of New Zealand (16th century). The only difference is that in 1885 it is easier to sell ownership of land to the world. But Spain arrived just like the British everywhere, at a time when the Pacific Ocean was known as the Spanish lake. Why does Spain have more mother speakers? Because Hispanic America has 90% of native Spanish speakers. 99% speak Spanish. 85% Catholic. Commonwealth has 10% native English speakers. Less than 10% are Christians. Basically the British traded like the Greek colonies. Spain civilized like Rome. The only places that the British civilized are the 13 colonies, which had 3 million inhabitants in 1783, and Australia, New Zealand, Canada, part of South Africa or Jamaica, which together had 20 or 25 million inhabitants in 1948. The Spanish empire It had 60 million Hispanic Americans in cities and more than 15 million in Europe. Spain creates its own aircraft carriers, which Australia buys. We also create state-of-the-art frigates and submarines that fire missiles at 1900 km. We participate in the new European warplane program with our own technology, on an equal basis with Germany and France. We are the second country with the most high-speed trains, also one of the 10 countries that have launched a rocket into space, and we are the tenth largest scientific research power in the world. We surpass France and Italy in human development and have the highest life expectancy in all of Europe. Your mistake is that you are left with a fixed photo of the world, based on prejudices. The isolated peninsulas of southern Europe have always had more difficulties trading with central and northern Europe. It was never competitive to travel 40 days on horseback to sell something in Germany, when the Frenchman sells and returns home for dinner. But the world changes. The Spanish empire made the food revolution, the migratory revolution, the city revolution, the Asian market revolution, the banking revolution. You can keep the industrial revolution. We built with engineers in the world, Europe, Africa, Asia and America, 2,300 stone cities with all services, 40 universities, 900 hospitals, 400 cathedrals, 300 fortresses, thousands of nursery schools. Do you think we have to wait for the British Empire to fill all that with printing presses, shoes, furniture, mirrors, ships, clothes, paper, minerals, metals, wood, weapons? That's Industry.
