George William, Elector of Brandenburg, had joined the obsequies in Stettin on May 31, 1633, and proposed joining the Alliance of Stettin if he would in turn participate in the Pomeranian succession.

Bogislaw XIV, Duke of Pomerania, the last living member of the House of Pomerania, had suffered a stroke already in April 1631.

Sweden has either approved nor rejected the Brandenburgian offer.

A "regiment constitution" on November 19, 1634, reforms the administration of the duchy of Pomerania.

The two governments in Wolgast and Stettin resulting from the partition of 1569 had already been merged on March 18.

The new constitution reforms this government to consist of a proconsul, a president, and seven members.
