The Spanish Armada

European History with Dr. Wilfred von Schpackle D.D.S. (Storyboard version. Not 100% animated.)

It's historically accurate based upon the European History class that I took in high school. Uh...wait...didn't have that class either. Uh-oh.
Um, note to educators: this may or may not be useful in the class room. Unless you teach at a public school or University, in which case it may help so that your students at least realize that there is a Spain.

Thunderossa I do hope you´llpublish my post, and that is have you considered making an equally non serious (but true) vid about how a year later when the English TRIED to invade Spain, they really got their asses kicked, cause I´m begining to realise that they dont know much about Spanish history, Hmm heard about Cartagena de Indias? No? Well look it up if you have time and get a mouthfull of truth, if you can stand it.. Cheers Bye.

It's possible, please refer to my forth coming post.

Ok. Right. I get it. Nobody from Spain thinks it's funny. Get over it. It's a fricking comedy!!

Jeez, you'd think that after the Inquisition and Franco that maybe...just maybe they'd get a sense of humor.

No more "historical correction" posts.

It's a comedy!

As a matter of fact, I'd think that our British viewers would find more offense to it as I knocked Lord Charles Howard pretty hard.

Special thanks to all that found the humor.

You are right I can't show this to my students but it is very funny. Thanks for posting.

Sorry ViernesXIII, my sister wasn't raped.

The only reason I approved your post was to show how much of an idiot you are to say that.

Considering how Spaniards seem to dislike this video, maybe I'll do one to showcase the talent of the Spanish Navy in 1898.

No more posts.

Ask your sister raped during the cornwall raid in 1595,or Fernando sanchez de tovar´s campaign against england (see my background) in the XlV century..LOL.ROFL,LMAO.

The Spanish just aren't good at fighting wars. lol

[Thunderossa]

It's rather hard to believe, but given the time period and the blatant stupidity that ran rampant during that point in history; it's not impossible to have happened.

When I was doing my research for this skit, there was never any mention on what happened afterword.

Thanks for the info sweetypie000,

Can u believe that after the English defeated the Armada that the sailors of the Royal Navy were forced to remain on the ship for the purpose that they would die of starvation and disease so that the chief exchequer did not have to pay them.

Only 100 or so Navy died in the battle, many many more died by being made to remain on ship and die. One year after the battle, less than half the men were alive. The state pretty much murdered them - this is the real face of England.

Totally true.

RIP
