History

Answer:

Well, I figure it depends on the individual you're asking. On one hand, Sir Francis Drake was adored in Britain, particularly by the Ruler, since his investigations brought numerous wealth to his domestic nation. On the other hand, he was a privateer, so to say, since he stole that gold and wealth from other ships he came over. Also, he was portrayed as "ruthless, self-important, self-willed, avaricious, money-minded, and flippant" man, so I figure he would be more of a lowlife than a hero.

Well, I guess it depends on the person you're asking.
On one hand, Sir Francis Drake was loved in England, especially by the Queen, because his explorations brought many riches to his home country. On the other hand, he was a pirate, so to say, because he stole that gold and riches from other ships he came across. Additionally, he was described as <span>"ruthless, arrogant, self-willed, covetous, money-minded, and amoral" man, so I guess he would be more of a villain than a hero.</span>
