Courts of Europe and marriage ties stir European diplomacy
Letters from Paris and London reveal talks of a marriage between the King of Naples and Sicily and the Princess Royal of Saxony, with ongoing war concerns. Reports from Constantinople and Moscow describe campaign plans and troop movements, while Diets in Ratisbon consider subsidies to support the Emperor against the Turks. Local notes mention royal rites, births, and appointments as Europe stays steeped in monarchic theater.
