49.5 Anglo-Spanish War 1585-1604

The famous Spanish Armada of 1588 was only one of several battles in the Anglo-Spanish War of 1585-1604.

The conflict continued for several more years, and became embroiled in continental affairs; the Dutch Revolt and rise of Henry IV of France. Finally, I look at the legacies of Philip II of Spain and Elizabeth I of England
