Embassador Negotiations and Barbary Policy Stirints
A Dutch ambassador to the Moroccan court faces insults while awaiting a reception at Gibraltar as tensions rise over peace talks with the King of Morocco.

Reports from Sept 24, 1736, note Count Seckendorf in Genoa and imperial orders for Tuscany, with Hungary plans and Army details. In Hanover, preparations mark the King’s birthday with a grand ball and public festivities.
