Pfalz War (English: Pfälzischer Erbfolgekrieg; War of League of Augsburg)

Japanese: ファルツ戦争 - ファルツせんそう(英語表記)Pfälzischer Erbfolgekrieg; War of League of Augsburg
Pfalz War (English: Pfälzischer Erbfolgekrieg; War of League of Augsburg)
Also known as the War of the Augsburg League or the War of the Grand Alliance, this was an international war that took place from 1689 to 1697, triggered by King Louis XIV of France's demand for the cession of the Palatinate. When the male line of the Counts of the Palatinate in northern Alsace died out, Louis XIV claimed the territory on the grounds that his brother, the Duke of Orléans, had a wife from the same family. Fearing this, the Holy Roman Emperor, the German princes of Bavaria and Saxony, and the kings of Spain, the Netherlands, and Sweden formed the Augsburg League to oppose the demand, and after the Glorious Revolution, England and Savoy also joined. The war began with France's invasion of the Palatinate, and the fighting spread to the American colonies. In the Palatinate, the French army waged a war of total destruction, devastating Germany and the Netherlands, and the French people suffered under the burden. Seeing the stalemate on the front lines, Louis XIV tried to disrupt the alliance through diplomatic negotiations, and concluded a separate peace treaty with Vittorio Amedeo II, Duke of Savoy, who had been the commander of the Holy Roman Emperor's army in the previous war. As a result, the alliance's unity collapsed, and the Treaty of Rijswijk in 1597 stipulated terms somewhat favorable to France, bringing the war to an end. This war is known in Germany as the "Orléan War" and in England as the "Nine Years' War."

Japanese:
アウクスブルク同盟戦争,大同盟戦争とも呼ばれる。フランス王ルイ 14世のファルツ領割譲の要求に端を発し,1689~97年に行われた国際戦争。アルザス北部のファルツ伯家に男系が絶えると,ルイ 14世は弟オルレアン公の妃が同家の出であるのを理由に領土を要求,これを恐れた神聖ローマ皇帝,バイエルン,ザクセンなどのドイツ諸侯,スペイン,オランダ,スウェーデン諸王はアウクスブルク同盟を結んで反対し,名誉革命後のイギリスやサボイアも参加,戦争はフランスのファルツ侵入で開始され,アメリカ植民地にも戦闘は拡大した。ファルツではフランス軍が徹底的な破壊戦争を展開,ドイツ,ネーデルラントも戦場となって荒され,フランス国民も負担に苦しんだ。ルイ 14世は戦線が膠着するのをみて,外交交渉によって同盟側の足並みを乱そうと考え,神聖ローマ皇帝軍の前戦司令官であったサボイア公ビットリオ・アメデオ2世と単独講和を締結。その結果同盟側の団結はくずれ,97年ライスワイク条約でフランスに若干有利な条件を取決め,戦いは終結した。なお,この戦争をドイツでは「オルレアン戦争」,イギリスでは「九年戦争」と呼称している。
