1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9. Real, dead person born in Europe on an island north/west of the main stalemate line (pictured below) between 1222-1746 (inclusive)
5. Not primarily known for science or art (broadly speaking)

As an aside: this is the current country map, although by log count instead of total count since total is just dominated by the US/UK (not meant to be a clue or related to the round in any way)

Might be worth noting that the Spanish Armada set sail in 1588

With that in mind, Free Guess: Charles Howard

If not: Is this person primarily known as an explorer and/or admiral?

This is 3 in a row so I will hold it as pending until the next question / guess unless you withdraw before then
