Description of Juliers Bergues With Dutchy Relations and Conflicts
The text outlines succession claims to Juliers and Bergues after the Elector Palatine's death, noting who may inherit and who renounces rights. It covers Prussian assurances to the bishop, potential negotiations to settle concerns, and a 1736 incident at Basel with Imperial and French tensions. It also describes geography, towns, and historical transfers of these duchies, ending with a Swiss cantonal dispute over fishing rights and cross-border commerce.
