October 1741: In mid-October 1741, Charles Albert of Bavaria, supported by French forces, was preparing to besiege Vienna during the War of the Austrian Succession. The military occupation of the territory by France and Bavaria posed a significant threat to the Austrian capital.
October 1741: The French deprecated a decisive move on Vienna, wishing to see Austria reduced rather than destroyed. So, on 24 October their forces turned north to march instead on Prague.
November 1741: The Bavarian, French and Saxon armies converged around Prague in November, besieging it and ultimately storming it.
December 1741: Charles Albert was the Elector of Bavaria, who was supported by France in his claim to the Bohemian throne during the War of the Austrian Succession. He proclaimed himself King of Bohemia on 7 December 1741 after his forces occupied the territory.
