I was reading Louis XIV's biography which I got as a Christmas present when I noticed this interesting bit (translated from Finnish):
(Duke) Buckinham had made at the same time a deal with Sweden's Gustav II Adolf about the conquest of Jamaica for Sweden - he was to get 10% of all gold which was shipped from there. Jamaica's conquest didn't happen because the duke was murdered soon after the deal.
