Plus, the treaty of London was favorable to Spain. Your logic is the same as if germans were saying "Germans defeated France and Britain in 1940 end off".
Great compilation. Just a side note, remember that Spain didn't have colonies overseas, but viceroyalties (and other sorts of different administration orders). A viceroyalty is an extension of the kingdom, to the extent that Madrid and Mexico where in the same land, and their inhabitants, both natives and Spanish, were equals before the crown. The processes followed by England and Spanish, to a great extent, were different. But most people has a lot of problems seen the differences, because they're both misinformed and misled in their education (please, take this comment of mine to any reliable AI model, and research more from there).
Though it is true, that the territories were viceroyalties, the "equal rights" were poorly enforced leading to forced workers camp etc. leading to hundreds of thousands of deaths
@sury1088 what so? And how many lives were preserved and enhanced because of them? Though the overall implementation was not perfect, almost any human system is. Also, keep in mind the overall background when and where this was happening: after 1500's and 9000 km from the central power, and at a time where other European powers were not even trying to rescue natives from their more primitive and disadvantaged situations (they didn't even recognized them as human beings; which was not the case of Spain, that recognized native Americans as equals in this sense as soon as 1550; the Valladolid Debate was the FIRST moral debate in European history to discuss rights and treatment of indigenous people). So, if you want to judge justly, be sure you consider the overall facts and do not judge following our current high standards regarding human systems. In the aftermath of the Spanish presence in America, the natives were huge winners (keep in mind that many of the injustices they suffered came later in time, during the so called Independences, or secessionist wars as some of us know they really were; you can call them Hispanic Secessionist Wars, something unknown for most people).
This is the dumbest Argument to make in 2025 ever. Latin Americans won’t even believe they were equal to the Pennisular people let alone the rest of the world.

As I understand it, the English ships were slightly heavier than the Spanish ships at 1100 tons as opposed to about 1000 tons on the Spanish side. The Spanish ships appeared to be larger because they had a higher freeboard. The difference in design between the Spanish ships and the English was that the English ships were designed as gun platforms whereas the Spanish ships were designed as infantry platforms. And so the English tactic was to stand off and fire guns, the Spanish tactic was to come close and board the enemy ship.
La Inglaterra de la época no estaba en condiciones de inclinar la balanza de poder, en aquella época solo había dos grandes jugadores, el Imperio Otomano y el Imperio Hispano, solo los jenízaros podían plantar cara a los tercios españoles y viceversa, el resto eran jugadores de segunda como en el caso de Francia o de tercera como en el de la Inglaterra de aquel entonces, en la guerra de las Alpujarras los propios comandantes que habían luchado contra los protestantes en Europa dijeron "aquí si que saben hacer la guerra, estos son soldados de verdad". La guerra anglo- española no supuso ningún problema serio para España (el contraataque ingles fue un chiste), aunque si una hazaña memorable para los ingleses, Lepanto fue la gran batalla naval de esa época y la que de verdad repercutió en el futuro. Los britanicos se volvieron poderosos siglo y pico después y entonces al escribir su historia quisieron ver un pasado mas glorioso.
Ya pero por mala fortuna este video sigue la perspectiva inglesa de la historia mostrandolos como una gran potencia cuando la realidad es que en el siglo XVI Inglaterra era un reino atrasado y de pequeño poder en comparación con las grandes potencias de la época que eran España, Austria y el Imperio Otomano. Inglaterra no empieza a ser una potencia de primera categoría en Europa hasta practicamente la Guerra de Sucesión española e incluso entonces era la Francia de Luis XIV la que se había convertido en la nueva gran potencia de la Europa Continental.
Spanish ships were the first to circumnavigate the earth. The map does not show the territories of the Viceroyalty of New Spain such as Florida, Texas, etc.
Some information that this video not mention is that the english counter armada of 1589 was defeated in the portuguese seas and in total between 40 to 80 english ships were sunk and around 11.000-15.000 men died (a disaster equal or greater than the famous spanish armada of 1588). This disaster united with another failed drake's expedition to the caribbean (another 10 to 15 english ships lost) returned the control of the seas to the Spanish Empire until around 1650-1660. The treaty of London of 1604 was signed at the request of the own english king and it was more favorable to the spanish interest.
It was James VI of Scotland who took the English throne in 1603, not the inaccurately labelled James IV, who had died 90 years earlier. Despite being a vassal state of England, Ireland was an overwhelmingly catholic country during the period covered, so the depiction of protestant crosses is also entirely inaccurate. The protestant plantation of settlers from Scotland & England seizing Catholic lands only began under James VI/I reign from 1603, and the subordination of Catholic Ireland to England reached its height some 50 years later with the invasion by Oliver Cromwell, during the shortlived republic, and was further extended following the invasion of England by the Dutch in the 1680s. These transitions were pivotal in the creation of the current union of the "United Kingdom" state, but took place well AFTER the period covered by this video.

Significant loses: 3 ships (that, with the spanish fleet scattered and the few ships available seriously outnumbered by the english). By the way, with their greater agility and skilled commanders, how come they couldn't do absolutely anything until they used fireships?
Portugal wasn’t part of the kingdom of Spain. It was an independent kingdom that shared a crown union with Spain. It would be more correct to say “habsburg domains” or “iberian union”.
It is however accurate to depict the Kingdom of England as completely subordinatinh Cymru-Wales at the time. Since the 20th century official maps had to become more respectful to Cymraeg-Welsh identity, especially more recently as support for independence from England has grown exponentially from almost nothing to over one third of the population and a majority of younger people under 45.

The Spanish didn't have an armada, the real armada in this battle was the Portuguese commanded by Castillians against the English armada. England have the lucky that the Spanish didn't have the skill to use the Portuguese ships with more range canon power, with more canons and bigger than the English ships. So by the incompetence of the Medina Sidonia the leader of the armada the English had their victory.

Again, this was the beginning of the end for Spain.
Within a hundred years Spain would become a third rate power, with the Protestant English and Dutch crippling their overseas empire and slowly but surely driving them back to Spain.
False
portugal was NOT part of spain, they had the same king at that point. video is not good
Biased video ooooooo
The Spanish didn't have an armada, the real armada in this battle was the Portuguese commanded by Castillians against the English armada.
England have the lucky that the Spanish didn't have the skill to use the Portuguese ships with more range canon power, with more canons and bigger than the English ships.
So by the incompetence of the Medina Sidonia the leader of the armada the English had their victory.
