Is there any other country in the planet that tried so hard to become a world power and failed miserably such as Asspain?
The Bongish ones were even more pathetic, losing to a handful of villagers.

The Armada under the command of the Adelantado, Martín de Padilla was gathered at Lisbon, Vigo and Seville and set off in October.[4] Before it had left Spanish waters, storms struck the fleet off Cape Finisterre.[6] The storms shattered the Armada causing much damage and forcing the ships to return to their home ports.[7] Nearly 5,000 men died either from the storm or disease and 38 ships were lost, which was enough for a long-term postponement of the Irish enterprise.[7] The material and financial losses added to the bankruptcy of the Spanish Kingdom, during the autumn of 1596.[

When the Spanish arrived in the English Channel, however, they were dispersed by a storm which scattered their fleet.[25] Even so, some ships did push on and even landed troops on the English and Welsh coasts.[26] The returning English fleet, which had been scattered by the same storm, were unaware that the Spanish had come to intercept them, and arrived safely in England with the loss of only one ship.[6][21] Padilla finally ordered a retreat back to Spain.[27
ALL DEFEATED BY STORMS. You were lucky because if we had a weatherman or just Ventusky, you would speak Spanish by now (also USAn´s would speak Spanish).
Brazil, actually. 200 million people, massive amount of natural resources and land size, constant warfare against all their neighbors yet it's exclusively known for football, prostitutes and slums.

Yes. Problem, Anglochud?
Don´t you get the fact that there was no battle at all because of the STORM??
" dispersed by a storm which scattered their fleet.[25] Even so, some ships did push on and even landed troops on the English and Welsh coasts.[26] The returning English fleet, which had been scattered by the same storm, were unaware that the Spanish had come to intercept them"
No battle in the 3 Armada expeditions. Zero battle. ZERO. Storms fucking up the ships or the intentions.
