News from Copenhagen and Stockholm report royal support for Indies trade
Arrivals from Flanders and Hambourg bring word of a king intent on backing the Indies commerce by his own authority. Fresh letters from Stockholm claim orders to hasten warships and frigates for spring launch. Discussions in Stockholm note mine ventures near Arboga and a push to finish the Stollen with state funds, plus potential foreign contributions rejected. The Senate plans articles for the States General next year, expected after peace. The czar pledges general Christian peace, while Manheim remonstrances concern finances. Regiments march to winter quarters, and a royal envoy to the Circle of Lower Saxony is anticipated to replace Marlch. The era’s turbulence and poverty in Mecklenburg remain stark in letters from Rostock and Petersburgh.
