WDF 29.950: The Franco-Dutch War XXIII


Within this latest episode we examine Charles' ongoing struggles with Parliament, and the domestic woes of Britain that saw Danby face off with the other lobby group led by Shaftesburg, Buckingham and the French Ambassador Barillon. These men all agitated for different reasons towards their stated policy of preference, but the international situation continued to advance apace of their concerns. Louis' recent gains in Ghent and Ypres remained a constant pressure on the allies, and Paris fully intended to use that pressure to its full capacity. With different agendas in play in all the relevant capitals, what remained at the heart of all this feverish activity was the Sun King, whose very whims had the power to drastically effect what the future held.Remember my dear listeners the importance of BEFIT to this podcast - please also make sure to follow us on Twitter @wdfpodcastSupport us on Patreon www.patreon.com/WhenDiplomacyFailsVisit our website www.wdfpodcast.com Get bonus content on Patreon
