Plague wanes as European powers plot invaried theaters
From Constantinople to Cadiz and Madrid reports detail a retreat of plague vigor, renewed naval preparations, and court intrigues. Counts, ministers, and generals including Bonneval and Braddock appear amid talk of Italian claims, Corsican garrisons, and shifting alliances. The Canary Islands, Jamaica plans, and Courland crisis color a broad strategic canvas with fleets, provisions, and troop movements shaping the season.
