Elizabeth\'s popularity soared. The impact of the victory for the nation\'s self-confidence and the future of North American exploration and colonization cannot be overestimated. England\\u2019s success was celebrated in all manners of ways. Songs were written, medals struck, portraits painted and prints published.
