  Louis XIV of France - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
By the abovementioned treaty, Louis XIV became engaged to marry the daughter of Philip IV of Spain (1621–65), Maria Theresa (Marie-Thérèse d'Autriche).
William III entered into an alliance with Spain, the Emperor and the rest of the Empire; and a treaty of peace with England was signed in 1674, the result of which was her withdrawal from the war and the marriage between William III and the Princess Mary, niece of the English King Charles II.
Thanks to the ambiguous nature of treaties of the time, Louis was able to claim that the territories ceded to him in previous treaties ought to be ceded along with all their dependencies and lands which had formerly belonged to them, but had separated over the years.

 Alsace - LoveToKnow 1911
In the beginning of the 12th century the country was divided between the two landgraviates of Upper and Lower Alsace, but to counteract the power of the nobles the emperors established in Alsace a great number of free towns.
Although this war was terminated in 1678 by the treaty of Nijmwegen, the French monarch was desirous of incorporating a still larger amount of Rhine territory; and accordingly in 1680 he laid claim to a number of territories, belonging to princes of the Empire, which he alleged had been dismembered from Alsace.
It was ordered that these territories should be at once restored to that province under the crown of France, and several independent sovereigns were cited to appear before two chambers of inquiry, called chambres de reunion, which Louis had established at Brisach and Metz.

 Curiosities of Literature: The Minister—The Cardinal Duke of Richelieu
In a conference which Grotius held with the parties, Joseph began the treaty, and bore the brunt of the first contest.
That this was Richelieu’s practice, appears from another similar personage mentioned by Grotius, but one more careless and less cunning, When the French ambassador, Leon Brulart, assisted by Joseph, concluded at Ratisbon a treaty with the emperor’s ambassador, on its arrival the cardinal unexpectedly disapproved of it, declaring that the ambassador had exceeded his instructions.
Such free sentiments nearly cost Brulart his head; for once, in quitting the cardinal in warmth, the minister, following him to the door, and passing his hand over the other’s neck, observed, that “Brulart was a fine man, and it would be a pity to divide the head from the body.”
