Norway and Quebec are the two nations officially hostile towards Rupert's Land, often engaging in skirmishes and sometimes larger-scale battles with one another. These rivalries root back to the foundation of the Quebec town of Saint-Jerome, where 754 and Skildo assassinated several residents and robbed their belongings. Since then, Saint-Jerome and Norway established an alliance, and as a result, during the second attack on Saint-Jerome, a Norwegian declared open hostilities with Rupert's Land. Norway has led numerous attacks and ambushes on Rupertians, and has even launched multiple sieges on Northwest Co. itself. Meanwhile, Rupertian attacks on Saint-Jerome and surrounding Quebec settlements have become increasingly common. Another incident that soured Rupertian-Quebecois relations came when the Northwest Militia repeatedly attacked long-time rivals who had recently settled in Quebec, after being forced out of Northern Canada by the Militia. The true casus belli for declaration of hostility between Rupert's Land and Quebec was given when Skildo, 268, 754, and [[teckno41|teckno41]] faked the enslavement of Rupertian Minister of Trade [[Bownar|Bownar]] in an attempt to lure in and kill any good Samaritan who would attempt to free him. Not long after, three men, a Lithuanian called [[TheLionRuler|TheLionRuler]], a citizen of Quebec called [[Scorpionzzz|Scorpionzzz]], and the leader of Quebec- [[matthewcannon01|matthewcannon01]] made an attempt to kill High Bishop Skildo and free Bownar from his staged kidnapping. As a result, Scorpionzzz was robbed and killed, while TheLionRuler and matthewcannon01 escaped with their lives. In response, Quebec declared Rupert's Land an enemy nation, and relations between the two countries have ceased. Outside of rival nations, many individuals are openly hostile towards Rupert's Land, viewing the nation as a glorified group of bandits and marauders. | Norway and Quebec are the two nations officially hostile towards Rupert's Land, often engaging in skirmishes and sometimes larger-scale battles with one another.

Rupert's Land is currently aligned with five nations: The Kalmar Union, British Columbia, North Rio, Weston and Rio Grande. The Kalmar-Rupertian alliance was formed in response to Norwegian hostilities, due to the long-time rivalry of border disputes, nationalism and war between Norway and the Kalmar Union.

The Kalmar-Rupertian alliance was formed in response to Norwegian hostilities, due to the long-time rivalry of border disputes, nationalism and war between Norway and the Kalmar Union. Not long after establishing their first alliance, Rupert's Land and British Columbia began talks, citing the importance of peace and unity between western Canadian nations, and putting an end to the increasingly concerning territorial dispute and borderline cold war between the two countries. Soon after, Rio Grande, North Rio, and Weston all simultaneously approached Rupert's Land with proposals of alliance, despite the attack on Northwest Co. carried out by the three countries before Rupertian nationhood was achieved. Alliances with all three nations were quickly formed, and further North American unity was assured. | ||
