Essotori - Minachian Relations

= Essotori - Minachian Relations =
Essotori - Minachian Relations are the bilateral relations between Essotori and Minachia.
== History ==
=== Conland - Sagadahoc (300s- 1390) ===
=== Duchy of Angellica (1128 - 1660) ===
Relations between the two states truly begin during the Minachian Golden Age, during which Angellica, then hosting the Nozerod in Garlin Palace, represented itself as a civilised administration within Sereine. While avoiding paying fealty, the Duchy regularly sent representatives to the Emperor's coronations, and acknowledged his power throughout the period. One of the few surviving documents from the time writes "The Emperor in the West commands the seas and the most mighty of armies, may his reign be long and fruitful." Most corrospondance and documentation was either destroyed during the evacuation from Angellica, or is kept within the Origin Respositories in the Palace of Origin. 
=== Early Essotori (1670 - 1770) ===
While direct respect generally faded after the conquest of Essotori, it never truly faded. The resurgent King of Conland - Sagadahoc refused to take the title 'Emperor of Essoland' in 1672, as he wished not to disrupt the Minachian Emperor, though some historians in Essotori believe this to simply have been realpolitik, rather than respect.
=== Modern Day ===
Essotori and Minachia frequently find themselves on the same side geopolitically, as well as socially. Thus, the two nations formed an official alliance in January 2020, and many cultural exchanges have taken place. Particularly in universities, which share students frequently. Minachian students are known as 'The Emperor's Crownslaves' affectionately.
