 WAR OF THE AUSTRIAN SUCCESSION - LoveToKnow Article on WAR OF THE AUSTRIAN SUCCESSION   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
At the close of this first act of the campaign the French, under the old Marshal de Broglie, maintained a precarious foothold in central Bohemia, menaced by the main army of the Austrians, and KhevenhUller was ranging unopposed in Bavaria, while Frederick, in pursuance of his secret obligations, lay inactive in Silesia.
Marshal Traun, summoned from the Rhine, held the king in check in Bohemia, the Hungarian irregulars inflicted numerous minor reverses on the Prtrssians, and finally Prince Charles arrived with the main army.
Marshal Traun was successful, and the grand-duke became the emperor Francis I. on the 13th of September.

Friedrich (who was never stingy in such matters, except to his own Generals, where it might do hurt) is profuse in his eulogies, in his admirations of Saxe; amiable to see, and not insincere; but which, perhaps, practically do not mean very much.
Friedrich got no "furtherance in the Swabian-Franconian Circles," or favor anywhere, by means of this Durchlaucht; in the end, far the reverse!--In a word, the happy couple rolled away to Wurtemberg (September 26th, 1748); he twenty, she sixteen, poor young creatures; and in years following became unhappy to a degree.
Friedrich's other employments are multifarious as those of a Land's Husband (not inferior to his Father in that respect); and, like the benefits of the diurnal Sun, are to be considered incessant, innumerable and, in result to us-ward, SILENT also, impossible to speak of in this place.

Traun's late manoeuvrings, which have been so enigmatic, to right and to left, upon Prag and other points, issue now in an attempt towards Pardubitz; which reveals to Friedrich the intention Traun has formed, of forcing him to choose one of those two places, and let go the other.
Friedrich doubtless has his thoughts as he rides up and down, in sight of Kladrup, among other places, settling many things; but what his thoughts were, he is careful not to say except where necessary.
Traun, 20,000 strong, PLUS stormy-enough Pandour ACCOMPANIMENT, is by this time through into Glatz; in three columns;--is master of all Glatz, except the Rock-Fortress itself; and has spread himself, right and left, along the Neisse River, and from the southwest northwards, in a skilful and dangerous manner.

 History of Friedrich II of Prussia V 14 - Chapter VII.
Though Friedrich went upon the bantering tone with Voltaire, his private thoughts in regard to the surrounding scene of things were extremely serious; and already it had begun to be apparent, from those Britannic-Austrian procedures, that some new alliance with France might well lie ahead for him.
For himself and his Silesia, THROUGH the Kaiser, Friedrich's feelings are pungently real;--and they are withal completely adjunct to the other set of feelings, and go wholly to intensifying of them; the evident truth being, That neither he nor his Silesia would be in danger, were the Kaiser safe.
And through Rothenburg, through Schmettau, by many channels, Friedrich is assiduously in communication with them; encouraging, advising, urging; their affairs being in a sort his, ever since the signing of those mutual Engagements, May 22d, June 5th.

Friedrich has posted himself on the north shore of the Elbe, from Pardubitz to the other side of Kolin; means to defend that side of the River, where go the Silesian roads.
Friedrich, contemplating his situation, not self-delusively, but with the candor of real remorse, was by no means yet aware how very bad it was.

Friedrich's Domestic History was not of noisy nature, during this interval:--and indeed in the bewildered Records given of it, there is nothing visible, at first, but one wide vortex of simmering inanities; leading to the desperate conclusion that Friedrich had no domestic history at all.
Friedrich's Opera costs him heavy sums (surely I once knew approximately what, but the sibylline leaf is gone again upon the winds!)--and he admits gratis a select public, and that only.
Friedrich left Aachen, taking leave of his Voltaire, who had been lodging with him for a week by special invitation, September 9th; and witnessed the later struggles and final inability of Maillebois to redeem, not at Aix, but at Berlin, amid the ordinary course of his employments there.

 International Policing in 19th-Century Europe (by Mathieu Deflem)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
In Prussia, the autocratic regime of King Friedrich Wilhelm IV was especially under attack by liberal politicians who demanded political and legal reforms guaranteed by a formal constitution.
The conference supplement indicates that Traun had gone back to Germany supposedly because she "hadn't found in Ronge what she had hoped for", but, in fact, her return was to enable Ronge to "keep up connections with Germany" (Beck and Schmidt 1993:395).
This is very likely the case, the report continues, because Traun's sister, Margarethe Meyer, is married to "the keen emissary of the communist connection, Carl Schurz, who liberated Kinkel in the year 1851, fled with him to England, and worked there as agent of the Umsturzpartei" (Ibid.:396).

 Pragmatic Sanction of 1713
Albrecht I's surviving sons Friedrich I the Fair (king of the Romans in 1314, 1289-1330), Leopold I (1290-1326) Albrecht II the Wise (1298-1358) and Otto (1301-1339) jointly received the inheritance, although Otto pushed strongly for a partition.
Meanwhile, Ernst's sons Friedrich V (1415-93, German king in 1440, crowned emperor in 1452) and Albrecht VI (1418-63) inherited the Albertine line's lands in Austria in 1457 and immediately fell out over it, but by 1463 the emperor was left alone in possession.
As German Emperor, Friedrich III approved the fake document produced by Rudolf IV, and thereby conferred on the archdukes of Austria a collection of privileges known as the privilegium majus (as opposed to the privilegium minus of 1156).
