Imperial Diplomacy and Protestant Confidence Across the Empire
The Diet of Lower Austria discusses sending new succors to Italy to sustain war aims and peace efforts, while Ratisbon reports the Empire’s resolve to maintain constitutions, curb Protestant grievances, and seek a protective balance among Electors. Reports also note Dutch forces moving from Coventry to Holland and London trade petitions over Calicoes and silk imports, with parliamentary debate on the Peerage Bill and domestic notices in Dublin and Brussels.
