Lord Nelson of course famously won the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. It was a naval engagement fought by the British Royal Navy against the combined fleets of the French and Spanish Navy during the Napoleonic Wars.
Trafalgar was perhaps the most decisive naval victory of that war. Twenty-seven British ships of the line led by Admiral Lord Nelson aboard HMS Victory defeated some thirty-three French and Spanish ships commanded by the French Admiral Pierre-Charles Villeneuve off the south-west coast of Spain just west of Cape Trafalgar. The Franco-Spanish fleet lost twenty-two ships, without a single British vessel being lost.
