A location of Spanish port, with a fleet of Spanish ships docked and standing-by blocking the way to the "Asian Trade regions", through the only known routes through the Mediterranean Sea. The Spanish blockade at Cadiz cut off the entrance to the Strait of Gibraltar, which allows access from the Atlantic coasts [This cut off, prevented all possible Northern Western European Trade].
The Strait of Gibraltar's name is Arabic in origin, from when Arabic and Islamic trans-oceanic trade passed through to ancient African and South Asian Markets. The Strait of Gibraltar separates Africa and Spain by 7.7 nautical miles. The Strait is the actual oceanic connection of the Atlantic and the Mediterranean Sea.
On the other side of the Strait, the Seas lead to the North Africa, Asia Minor, India Asia [Arabian Sea to the Indian Ocean], and onto the South Asian Trade in "Legendary Cathay" [Cathay or Katai or Catai, is another name for Early regions in China who were in trade with other trade Dynasties].
