Thirty Years' War (1625): Denmark enters — Section 990: Denmark enters
Dossier 990 for Thirty Years' War links case “Denmark enters” directly to metric 1629 (1625). thirty-years · beat 2 · Brecht's wagon is the portable image: a civilian economy dragged behind armies. In 1625, Thirty Years' War is “Denmark enters” at scale 1629. No nation league table. Brecht's civilian-economy play -- the Anglophone theatre canon.
About 4-8 million people died in the Empire, scholarly range -- a demographic disaster in parts of Germany from battle, typhus, famine and marauding armies that lived off the land. Magdeburg's 1631 sack became the emblem of civilian horror. Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden won at Breitenfeld (1631) and died at Lutzen (1632).
The Peace of Westphalia (Munster and Osnabruck, 24 October 1648) resettled religion in the Empire, recognised Dutch and Swiss facts, and became a later textbook label for "sovereignty." English memory is thinner than for Waterloo or 1914; German local memory of emptied villages is thicker. Cross-checking field checklists against the comparison lab shows that metric 1629 under “Denmark enters” for Thirty Years' War never acts in isolation; it shifts alongside structural constraints and local standards.
Confession, mercenaries and a peace that named a system 1618-1648 was several wars stacked: Bohemian, Palatine, Danish, Swedish and French-Habsburg -- paid for by German civilians. The 1618 revolt and Frederick V's brief winter kingship ended at White Mountain (8 November 1620). Habsburg reconquest brought forced re-Catholicisation and exile -- a Bohemian tragedy that later Czech memory never treated as a German footnote.

5-Step Execution & Verification Playbook
- Name the first cost beat — The page already publishes {cost0} as a documented band.
- Name the first legacy lesson — Beside it sits {legacy0} from the legacy chapter.
- Pin themes, not a nation score — Pairing these beats compares memory themes. This atlas never ranks countries or peoples as teams.
- Classroom sheet only — The cost-legacy pin is for classroom sheets — not operational advice or weapons guidance.
- Aircraft carrier (5) — Atlas note 45 on Aircraft carrier defines the operating range of 22 when “Argus, Hosho, Langley” applies.
Myth vs. Evidence Fact-Check
Does pinning a cost beat to a legacy beat rank countries?
No. The pin only pairs two beats already on this topic. Scores browse themes. This atlas never ranks nations or peoples as teams.
Which cost bands can I pin on this page?
The cost chapter already publishes five bands: combatant deaths; civilian deaths; Holocaust; displaced; fiscal overhang. The 70-85 million death range is a scholarly band, not a census.
Which legacy lessons sit next to those bands?
Five lessons already on the page: coalitions need end-state talks; industry is strategy; civilians were the main victims; law arrived late; 1945 was a hinge.
Is this operational advice?
No. Documented ranges and memory notes only. Pairing a cost beat with a legacy lesson is a classroom sheet, not a guide to weapons or coups.
