Count de Montemar eyes retreat from new Works amid Moor threat
The Count de Montemar resolves to abandon ongoing fortifications and retreat from Oran and Mazalquivir if Moor harassment worsens, risking blown defenses and defenseless inhabitants along the African coast. Reports from Berlin and Seville note royal hunts, court alliances, church and school plans for Saltzburg Protestants, and Gibraltar fortifications nearing completion amid a broader European power balance.
