A.Can't really find anything about it.
B. Consists of mostly large Junker estates controlled by the nobles. The government collected l,533,000 thalers in 1689 from taxes. The government's monopolies on such things as salt and silk helped them increase the size of the standing army over the years. The army was used in turn to build structures and things like canals, ect.
C. The Army 80000 well trained proffesional soldiers and the navy I haven't found yet most likely extremely small.
D. None that I'm aware of other than the fact that Brandenburg is cut off from Prussia because of Poland's ownership of the strip of land between them. Also, the fact that Brandenburg is surrounded by powerful states: France, Austria, Poland, and Sweden.
I couldn't find anything about the Diplomacy of the time or about the navy.
