The British, led by Admiral Horatio Nelson, won at the October 21, 1805, Battle of Trafalgar. Nelson's 27 ships were matched against the the combined French and Spanish fleets of 33 warships. The British did not lose a single ship, but they destroyed or captured over half of their enemy's fleet. Although Great Britain won the battle, she lost one of her greatest heroes, for Nelson was mortally wounded by a sniper during the battle and died later that day.
