    The Battle of the Spanish Armada refers to a naval conflict in 1588 between the English naval forces, commanded by Sir Francis Drake, and the Spanish Armada, led by the Duke of Medina Sidonia. Spain's objective was to overthrow Queen Elizabeth I of England, reinstate Catholicism, and seal Spanish dominance over the seas.
