Wars and Diplomatic Moves Sweep Across Europe, 1739
From Amsterdam and London we hear reports of intensified European grand strategy. France presses for power balancing with Austria and the Porte while Turkey and Persia loom as potential flashpoints. Counts, squadrons, and potential campaigns are mentioned, with naval and land force movements across Cadiz, Portugal, Hamburg, and the Baltic. Royal visits, revenue measures, and public notices mingle with property sales and notices in Dublin and Kilkenny amid a broad backdrop of looming conflict.
