🕑 Added 2021-04-26 05:01:01 +0000 UTC[PATRONS]
We know that Prussia went for broke in 1740, and attacked Silesia, but what about the Austrians? What had they gone through which made them so susceptible to an attack? And, what was the rest of Europe doing? Find out here, as we take a continental tour of Europe on the eve of the War of the Austrian Succession. We'll learn, among other issues, why the Bavarians were so peeved, why the English and Austrians were on poor terms, and why Frederick the Great believed he had good reason to fear Augustus III of Saxont-Poland.
