Relations between the Blackhelm Confederacy and Valkea have been conducted for centuries, extending back to the 17th century when the predecessor of the Blackhelm Confederacy, the Empire of Exponent sent the first Embassy to Valkea. Relations between the two have fluctuated over time.

Relations with the modern Blackhelm Confederacy first officially began in 1997, when the Confederacy formally established itself as the legal successor state to the Empire of Exponent. Since the establishment of the Blackhelm Confederacy, the Blackhelm Confederate government has sought to pursue closer relations with Valkea in several spheres.

History

Within a decade of establishing a foothold in Western Lorecia with the Occidentes Province, the Empire of Exponent sent their first official Embassy to the court of Valkea in 1642.

Following Valkean nuclear disarmament, Exponent and Valkea entered into the Agreement for Security and Defense Cooperation between the Exponential Empire and Valkea in 1979, which granted Imperial Exponential forces the rights to Turnu Air Base in exchange for a pledge to defend Valkean borders and sovereignty in the event of armed conflict. This treated was updated in 1998 as the Agreement for Security and Defense Cooperation between the Blackhelm Confederacy and Valkea, which legally transferred the rights and responsibilities from Exponent to the new Confederacy.
