The Cádiz Expedition of 1625 was a naval expedition against Spain by English and Dutch forces. The plan was put forward because after the Dissolution of the Parliament of 1625, the Duke of Buckingham, Lord High Admiral, wanted to undertake an expedition that would match the exploits of the heroes of the Elizabethan Era and in doing so, would return respect to the country and its people after the political stress of the preceding years.
