Ando-Kwangju relations
Ando-Kwangju relations (or Andalus-Kwangju relations, also know as the A-K relations) refers to international relations between the Federal Kingdom of Andlaus and the State of Kwangju. Relations have been close and extensive since 1952, when Andalus helped establish the Republic of Kwangju and fought on it's side during the three year Kwangju War. The unification of Kwangju brought new importance to these relations, as the two nations have emerged as two of the most advanced economies and militaries of East Althena. While tensions have flared at times over influence in the EAS, the two sides regard each other as strategic partners.
Especially in the context of the East Althenian Sphere, the cooperation between the countries reaches immense coordination and collaboration. Both are considered "core countries" in regards to EAS policy-making, and generally vote together in the East Althenian Parliament. Additionally, along with Okaiken, Kwangju and Andalus form the "East Althenian Three", representing the developed countries of the region.
