What role did france play in the revolutionary war?

Motivated by a long term rivalry with Britain and to avenge their losses in the French and Indian War, they secretly began sending supplies to the American colonists in 1775. I hope this helped.

The French allied themselves with American colonists.  This was hugely important for two reasons:

France provided significant military support, especially in leadership roles like that of General Lafayette, and in support provided by the French navy in battling British ships and transporting reinforcements for the American patriots. France devoted enormous financial aid to the Americans. The cost to France for supporting America’s revolution added up to 1 billion livres  (about 4 billion in today’s dollars).  That financial boost was much needed by the revolutionaries in America.  [It did also have the side effect of putting the French government deeper in debt, which led to the French Revolution.]

False.

Explanation:

The given statement is false because it was not after the death of King Philip II but in his reign that Spain enjoyed it's Golden Age of Power.

Philip II was the King of Spain from 1556 to 1598 and King of Portuguese from 1580-1598. Philip succeeded the throne of Spain from his father Ferdinand, who succeeded the throne from his brother Charles V.

After Philip came to the throne of Spain, Spain enjoyed the Golden Age of power. Philip was an art lover and a great defender of Catholism. The great strength of Spain lied in its army.

So, the given statement is false.
