  • La spedizione a Terranova, nota anche come spedizione di Bernard Drake a Terranova, fu una spedizione navale inglese che ebbe luogo all'inizio della guerra anglo-spagnola nell'Oceano Atlantico settentrionale tra l'estate e l'autunno del 1585. L'area del conflitto fu quella oggi nota con il nome di Grandi Banchi, al largo dell'attuale Terranova. L'intento della spedizione era quello di catturare la flotta di pescherecci spagnoli e portoghesi che operava nell'area. La spedizione risultò un enorme successo militare e finanziario e rimosse di fatto gli spagnoli e i portoghesi da quelle acque. Il raid ebbe inoltre notevoli conseguenze nell'ambito dell'espansione coloniale inglese in Nord America. (it)
