The play centers around the challenges faced by the main character, Marie, and her family as they navigate social expectations and romantic entanglements in the complex world of military society in French Flanders. The opening of "Die Soldaten" introduces us to various characters in Lille and Armentières, focusing on a lively dialogue between Marie and her sister Charlotte as they discuss a letter Marie is writing. The initial scenes set the stage for a web of relationships, including potential suitors such as Stolzius, a cloth merchant, and Desportes, a young nobleman. The interactions suggest tensions between societal norms and personal desires, foreshadowing the comedic misunderstandings and drama that will ensue as Marie's affections become entangled with the expectations placed upon her by her father, Wesener, and the surrounding society.
