1670 - Between 1665 and 1667, the English warred with the Dutch, the French joined the Dutch against the English, and then they all made peace. London suffered the Plague and the Great Fire in successive years. The Spanish King Charles II is a sickly child, leaving his country leaderless. England's relationship with Spain has deteriorated gradually into a state of war. There is now a Danish presence in the Caribbean at St. Thomas. Pirates and Buccaneers are now so daring they raid major Spanish cities like Cartegena with no fear (and the active support of the other European nations).
