Reports on European Armies and Court Intrigues in 1700s Dispatches
Lengthy letters recount court rumors of Empress orders, investigations into German affairs, and arrests of nobles and officers. Dispatches from Vienna, Madrid, and Paris describe French, Austrian, and British troop movements, sieges near Savoy, Barcelona, and Piedmont, plus plans for Moravian forces and Hungary’s quotas. Affected areas include Moscow, Turin, and Genoa, with notes on sieges, capitulations, and reprisals as armies maneuver toward frontiers. Additional items cover plague conditions in Bavaria and Barbary ports, quarantine measures, and supply concerns amid shifting alliances and anticipated Allied operations.
