Once, when Spain was the world's Superpower, a state of hostilities came into being between Spain and England.
Spain possessed the mightiest military power in the world...The Spanish Armada...the largest seafighting power ever known...considered invincible and undefeatable.
The Spanish Armada sailed to attack England and invade. England was in no position of military strength against such an invasion.
A severe unexpected tempest arose at sea as the Spanish Armada neared the coast of England, and the entire Spanish Armada was destroyed and sunk to the bottom of the sea.
In the years following, England built up her sea forces, and soon ruled the world as The British Empire.

Sixty years ago, the Nazi Military War Machine, built up by Adolph Hitler, shocked and held the entire world paralized with fear.
The German Army was "unstoppable"..."undefeatable"..."invincible"..."state of the art"..."the finest men with the finest machines"...
Hitler invaded the USSR, his War Generals assuring both himself and Germany that "Russia would be defeated within two weeks."
In actual fact, however, the outgunned and overpowered Soviets bunkered down, held out, and literally crushed the Wehrmacht at Stalingrad, leaving Germany's entire eastern front wide open and exposed to the massive Soviet invasion which soon thereafter followed.
The Third Reich's "Impenetrable Fortress Europa" found itself penetrated by Allied Forces at Normandy Beach, and British, American, French forces, all outgunned with a less modern war machine than had the Nazis, soon finished off The Nazi Reich.
