The Spanish Armada, the Spanish fleet sent to England in order to get an army on the ground and depose (and most likely execute) Queen Elizabeth I, was defeated near the Dutch city of Gravelines, and successfully prevented an English invasion...
...But what if the Spanish invasion of England was successful in deposing Elizabeth? Who will become the next King or Queen of England? The next in line was Mary, Queen of Scots (Mary I Stuart), but was executed in 1587. Does this mean an earlier union of the crowns under James VI/I? Would it mean that Philip could force a Personal Union with England in addition to the territories of Castile, Spain, Portugal and the Two Sicilies? Who else would be qualified here?
