		The Anglo-Spanish War of 1654 was fought between the British Protectorate of Oliver Cromwell and the Spanish between 1654 and 1660.
		The Spanish army of 15,000 troops was augmented by a force of 3,000 British Royalists - formed as the nucleus of potential army for the invasion of England by Charles II, with Charles' brother James, Duke of York, amongst its commanders.
		In 1657 and 1658 the Spanish, sailing from Cuba, failed at the battles of Ocho Rios and Rio Nuevo in their attempts to retake the island, and in 1657 Blake defeated the Spanish West Indian Fleet.

	Wars of Great Britain
		The War of the Spanish Succession (1701—1714) was a major European war that arose in 1701 after the death of the last Spanish Habsburgs king, Charles II of Spain.
		As the War of the Grand Alliance came to a close in 1697, the issue of the Spanish succession was becoming critical.
		The war proceeded for over a decade, and was marked by the military leadership of notable generals such as the Claude-Louis-Hector de Villars and the James FitzJames, 1st Duke of Berwick-upon-Tweed for France, the John Churchill, 1st Duke of Marlborough for England, and Eugene of Savoy for the Austrians.

	Second Anglo-Dutch War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In April 1654 the First Anglo-Dutch War was concluded with a British victory despite the fact that peace was not signed for another eight months.
		This, together with the cost of the war, of the Great Plague and the extravagant spending of Charles II, meant that the English were keen to sign a peace treaty — and so were the Dutch as they had to deal with a French invasion of the Spanish Netherlands at the same time.
		The first encounter between the nations was, as in the First Anglo-Dutch War, at sea.

		An incident at sea concerning the Act resulted in the First Anglo-Dutch War, which lasted from 1652 to 1654, ending in the Treaty of Westminster (1654), by which the Navigation Act remained in effect.
		The Second Anglo-Dutch War began in 1665 when the English declared war — they had already attacked Dutch settlements in the New Netherlands.
		Because the Dutch were also troubled by French invasions in the Spanish Netherlands, the English and Dutch signed a peace treaty, the 1667 Treaty of Breda, but not before Dutch admiral Michiel de Ruyter had destroyed a large part of the English fleet on the Thames.
