Tux Divan Refuses Peace Terms Narrowly Favoring the Porte
Reports from the era describe Turkish naval preparations expanding in the Archipelago as five more ships join the fleet and crews are largely European. Government plans to strike at Crimea are hinted, with two divisions intended for Trebizonde landings and protecting Octakon amid Ottoman defense. Frontier notes in Fune and Fenice add vigilance over Ottoman sieges of Oczakow and diplomatic moves involving Vienna and Dalmatia. A Royal inoculation event in Markh records the King and courtiers receiving smallpox vaccination, based on careful medical briefing.
