In the Seven Years' War Prussia fights against a coalition of Austria, France, Sweden and Russia. England, which is fighting France for colonial possessions in America, supports Prussia with subsidy payments so that it harms the French opponent. Sweden plays a minor role - Colonel Belling's hussars are sufficient to tie down this opponent. The French operate mainly in the western theatre of war. The King's main opponents are the Austrians and Russians. Often the full exploitation of their successes is prevented by quarrels between the two allies and by Russian supply difficulties (caused by the huge distances).
