This book provides a radical new interpretation of the aims of the lesser German princes during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries through the examples of the duchy of Wurttemberg. Arguing that the princes' political ambitions were fundamental in shaping the internal development of their territories, the author sheds new light on the political importance of the notorious German 'soldier trade' and its role in international diplomacy.
