Answer:

Spain joined with Venice and other Italian states in the Battle of Lepanto because of their same religion, Catholicism, which inspired them to fought against the muslim Ottoman Empire for the control of the Mediterranean.

Explanation:

The battle of Lepanto was a naval combat that took place on October 7, 1571 near the Greek city of Nafpaktos.

They faced the Ottoman Empire's army against that of a Catholic coalition, called the Holy League, formed by the Kingdom of Spain, the Papal States, the Republic of Venice, the Order of Malta, the Republic of Genoa and the Duchy of Savoy.

The Catholics, led by John of Austria, were victors, and only thirty Ottoman galleys were saved. The Ottoman expansionism in the eastern Mediterranean was halted for a few decades and the Ottoman allied corsairs were forced to abandon their attacks and expansions to the western Mediterranean.

Similar-- composition of lyrical poetry based on themes found in life like love and tragedy.

Difference-- Singer/songwriters work for a large media audience whereas troubadours worked for the court.

Singer/songwriters and troubadours express emotion and stories through lyrics that are often written in poetic measure. They express the themes of society through their songs. These songs are for entertainment, dance, and expression of love, sadness, or other emotions.
However, singer/songwriters today work for a media audience with purchasing power. They must appeal to all people to sell their product. Troubadours were often employed by the royal court and must appeal to the court. They were smaller in scale for the scope of their lyrics as they worked in villages and local royal events.
