The Spanish Armada goes to fight in the English Channel

Armada
On May 28, 1588, Spain's Invincible Armada of up to 130 ships and 30,000 people set out from Lisbon, Portugal, for the English Channel to fight against the British Royal Navy.
The Spanish Armada is a famous naval fleet in Spain in the late 16th century. The Armada consists of more than 150 large warships, more than 3,000 cannons, and a powerful naval fleet of tens of thousands of soldiers. At its peak, the fleet had more than 1,000 ships. This fleet roams the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, proudly calling itself the "Armada".
The "Great Battle of England and Spain" in 1588 was one of the most important naval battles in the Anglo-Spanish War. Britain's victory in the Battle of England and Spain in 1588 was a victory in which the weak defeated the strong. From this war to the time when Britain was again suppressed at the Battle of Bona-Lisbon in 1589, Britain was basically in the initiative during this year, and Spain's dominance of the Atlantic Ocean was also broken during this war, until 1589. The Battle of Bona-Lisbon regained Atlantic hegemony.
Key words: May 28, 1588, Spain, Armada, England
