| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The international war that raged throughout continental Europe from 1618 to 1648 had a profound affected upon almost all European states. Although certain countries showed willingness as early as 1635 to start peace talks, and France, Sweden and the Holy Roman Empire reached a preliminary treaty in 1641, it was not until 1645 that talks were actually initiated. This raises the question, what are the factors that compel belligerents to move towards a peace settlement? |
