Talahara-Yisrael relations

Relations between Mont and Yisrael have spanned over two centuries since Mont's independence from the Holy Audonian Empire and its formation as an independent republic. Mutual knowledge of, and trade between, the Amazighs peoples of ancient pre-state Mont and the earlier pre-royal Jewish realms date back millennia, but relations exist as far back as the Caliphate era during the 1000s CE. Much of the coastal, northern, and southwestern parts of modern Mont were under the rule of the Medina Yehuda before they were ousted by the Belisarian Crusades in Scipia in the late 1230s.

Modern diplomatic relations were established in 1802 between both countries. Later in the 19th century during the Era of Great Nationalism, the northern half of the current northwestern district of Mont - Tafriqt - was colonized by Yisrael as a protectorate. Relations were contentious through the Year of Blood. Post-1950, the countries slowly reconciled and reoriented with warmer ties. By the 1973 Yarden Accords, both nations had cordial relations. However, relations chilled under the aggressive foreign policy of President Binyamin Schwartz, which pursued a hard-charged anti-communist and pro-global Monarchy-Capitalist Bloc posture. Tensions subsided under Eitan Herzog, but ratched up steadily, especially towards the end of, Noah Feldman's presidency, which was marked by a return to a Schwartz-esque foreign policy under his rising Neoconservatism. With the election of Feldman's key ally and hand-selected successor, Yitzchok Katz, another Neoconservative, as well as the sudden Hezekian Reaction and the Kaduri Incident, relations between both countries have turned hostile for the forseeable future.

Law enforcement

Main article: Mont-Yisrael extradition treaty

Police agencies in both countries have little-to-no interaction or cooperation. In the aftermath of the 4th West Scipian War (1963-66) which witnessed perhaps the peak of Montian-Yisraeli ties, both states signed a bilateral extradition treaty in 1967.

Military and security

Militarized border

Main article: Mont-Yisrael border

The Mont-Yisrael border is a militarized frontier, intersecting the New Levanon Mountains, which are a northern appendage of the Great Scipian Desert. The entire land border region is fenced and patrolled except for the highest mountainous areas.

Border controls and immigration

Visas to travel are required by both states for entry for nationals from the other state.

In the fallout from the RYDF commando raids and airstrikes in the Kaduri Incident in January 2020, Mont closed the border between both countries.
