Given the X-odus (see what we did there? A true fire bird): which other #earlymodern centres have arrived here already?
We've got a starter pack for easy following, but keen to hear about more: go.bsky.app/LLzFj3b

A new Starter Pack of Danish historians - let me know if you want to be added.
As you might notice, there is a bit of a gender unequality in the Pack, so please help if you can :-)
