The correct answer is
a. the defeat of the Spanish armada

The Spaniards controlled the sea and with it they controlled passage through the Atlantic ocean into the new world. When British people managed to beat the armada they opened up the ocean and started colonizing the new world more taking the east coast of the new continent for themselves.
