Mont Delacroix and Dutch frontier plans in 18th century Europe
In cautious dialogue, Mont Delacroix discussed expanding French frontiers and neutralizing German ecclesiastical electors to gain strategic depth. He proposed drafting an equivalent from the Emperor for the Austrian Netherlands and outlined secularization of church territories in Germany and Italy. The exchange explored France's post revolution balance of power and neighbor security while considering the Germanic constitution’s future impact.
