Sir Francis Drake

As a buccaneer in the service of her Majesty Elizabeth I, Drake looted mainly Spanish ships and port cities. In an attack on Cádiz he manages to destroy large parts of the Spanish fleet. But that’s too much for king Phillip II of Spain. He sends out the largest fleet in history to attack England: The Armada.  As a buccaneer in the service of her Majesty Elizabeth I, Drake looted mainly Spanish ships and port cities.
