Papal Protest Over Westphalia Electorate Creation
The text records Innocent X protesting the 1648 Westphalia settlement and the eighth Electorate to Charles Louis of the Palatinate, denouncing the creation as unlawful without Holy See consent. It cites papal nuncio Fabio's public protest asserting ecclesiastical matters require papal authority and condemning the provisions as prejudicial to the Roman See and orthodoxy.
