Global political crisis sparks court tensions and troop movements
A contaminated dispatch from Vienna and reports from Verona, Naples, and Paris describe Imperial Secretary Ardinal Palucci and Marshal Prie negotiating to delay recognition of Charles VII as King of Spain, while France, Madrid, and Jesuit factions push back. Troop returns to Lombardy, Lisoue castle seized, and mutterings of a broader conflict surge across Zurich, Bern, and Geneva amid famine and fear of French and English maneuvers.
