WDF 29.850: The Franco-Dutch War XIX

In this latest episode, we are drawn to 1675, a year of great events and the beginning of a trend of struggle and attrition along the key conflict areas of Europe. We bid farewell to yet another great man in history, and the Great Elector of Brandenburg is given some troubling news, as he seeks to craft his legend by taking on the most formidable enemy in his state's history - Sweden. Frederick William's experience here would set in motion a chain of events that would resound throughout history for many centuries to come, as Brandenburg-Prussia stepped out onto the world stage.Don't forget to BEFIT!Support us on Patreon www.patreon.com/WhenDiplomacyFailswww.wdfpodcast.com Get bonus content on Patreon
