Desperate Power Struggles Amid Calamitous Trade and War
Lisbon reports Muley Abdallah plans to march on towns that refuse allegiance. He pays troops from wax duties, stirring unrest as European goods flood Salee and prices soar. Neighbors brace for insurrection while forts grow stronger. In Milan and Mantua regions, imperial forces hasten preparations with bridges, garrisons, and routes to block Spaniards. Dutch and English ships move for Breeiona and Genoa, while Corsican and Spanish fleets gather readiness along Italian shores. The era’s upheaval touches Apulia, Tuscany, and Lombardy with fortifications, troop movements, and naval transports as rulers seek advantage.
