What does that mean?

edit

Since 1734 he sign a flourishing soldier trade with the Emperor, to the Prince of Waldeck and to the King of Prussia, which put him into the position to created a tax in his own duchy. The duchy had to suffer for Frederick with difficulty in the Seven Years War and force the duchy into a war with his neighbour, the duke Anton Ulrich of Saxe-Meiningen (The "Wasunger War"). The first sentence is quite unintelligible to me and the second is lacking a subject in the second half and non-idiomatic in the first. Can a native speaker help who also knows the historical going-ons? --82.207.247.179 (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 23:39, 4 February 2009 (UTC).Reply
