Soravia-Vinalia relations (Soravian: Відносини між Зоравський Pеспубліка та Об'єднана Республіка Віналія; Vidnosyny mizh Zoravs'kyy Respublika ta Ob'yednana Respublika Vinaliya) are the bilateral relations between the Soravian Republic and the Unified Republic of Vinalia. The history of both countries began with the exploration and claim by Soravian explorer Afanasij Orlev of all lands north of the Medvid River for the Soravian Empire.

Vinalia was established as a separate colony than Chistovodia, owing to the noted differences between the indigenous communities of Vinalia and Chistovodia. Vinalia became an agricultural center for Soravia, exporting cash crops for Soravian consumption. Vinalia won its independence during the Chistovodian War of Independence, where Vinalia joined Chistovodia as a federal state, earning its full independence in 1885. Soravia and Vinalia maintained cordial relations, as Soravia was an important trading partner for Vinalia. The First Vinalian Civil War in 1933-1935 saw Vinalia split into two countries, the Democratic Republic of Vinalia, and the Councilist People's Republic of Vinalia. Soravia maintained ties with the Republic of Vinalia during this period. Soravia and both Republics experienced great rapprochement during the early 90's as Soravia returned to prominence in Asteria Superior, helping both republics reunify in 1993, and becoming a close partner to Vinalia. Since reunification, Soravia and Vinalia have had a healthy relationship based on their historic, cultural and linguistic ties, with Soravia being Vinalias 2nd largest trading partner.
