The Eleventh Hour – Chapter 18 Britain and the world

• France was only prevented from bringing greater force to bear against us across the Atlantic (during the American war of Independence) by her heavy military commitments in Europe, such as the War of Spanish Succession (1704 – 1714) and the Severn years war (1756 – 1763)

• In 1834 the Zollverein or customs Union came into existence – only Austria and the German Northwest Coast land remained aloof

Samuel Untermeyer (elected President of the World Jewish Economic Federation) Text printed in New York Times August 7th 1933
