Creeperopolis-Quebecshire relations refers to the diplomatic and economic relations between the Holy Traditionalist Empire of Creeperopolis and the Serene State of Quebecshire.
Since the mid-twentieth century following the end of the Creeperian Civil War, the two countries have had close diplomatic and economic ties.[1]
Relations were temporarily soured during the reign of Alfonso VI, who ruled over Creeperopolis from 1999 until the a coup in 2003. However, they have been largely repaired and expanded upon following this time.
History
Creeperian Civil War
When the Creeperian Civil War erupted in 1933, Grandmaster Bourassa and Speaker of the Parliament Mathias Pascal did not make an effort to involve Quebecshire, as it was generally seen as a regional conflict that was unimportant to the affairs of Quebecshire. When Pascal was narrowly re-elected in 1934, there remained a lack of incentive to risk controversy by getting involved in the Creeperian Civil War. However, global trade near the southern landmass was slowed due to the war, which caused the prices of sugar, coffee, and textiles to rise in Quebecshire. Pascal's viewpoint shifted and he wanted the government to intervene in the Creeperian Civil War, either by providing escorts for cargo ships, but according to accounts by Bourassa and Pascal, Bourassa advised against taking a side in the war or being involved in a way which could risk the possibility of being pulled into the conflict. Not wanting to risk a political confrontation with Bourassa due to his popularity over the last three decades, Pascal followed his advice for the time being.
Bourassa died in office in 1936, being replaced by Henri Arceneaux as Grandmaster of Quebecshire. Arceneaux and Bourassa were similar in their leadership styles, but after an extended meeting with Pascal, Arceneaux decided to allow him to involve Quebecshire in Creeperian affairs to lower the prices of goods in Quebecshire. They eventually agreed that despite their ideological differences with Quebecshire, the Romerists were more likely to eventually win the war. The Pascal government began trading with the Romerist side and ensuring the security of their shipments. Quebecshire did not get involved past this, though some Quebecshirite volunteers fought for either side in the war.
The decision to trade with the Romerists helped bring prices down in Quebecshire again for the Creeperian exports and the Romerists eventually won the war in 1949, leading to a continuation of the trading and diplomatic relationship between Quebecshire and Creeperopolis. Many academics consider Quebecshire's involvement in the Creeperian Civil War and the subsequent relationship between the nations to be an anomaly of international policy by Quebecshire.[1]
