[PATRONS]
By the late 1740s, Saxony appeared to be a shadow of its former self. Riven by war, and defeated several times by its once puny neighbours, the tides of history seemed to have consumed Augustus III of Saxony-Poland's regime. One figure above all was determined to halt this trend though. His name was Count Heinrich Bruhl, and he believed that Saxony's golden age was only just beginning.
All he had to do was leverage the Elector King's position, a task which would demand intense, complex diplomatic negotiations, and and innovative, yet surprisingly traditional, set of principles, to bind it all together. Unsurprisingly, enemy number one was Frederick the Great!
