Relations between the Messidor Union and Yisrael have spanned over two centuries since the simultaneous overthrow of the Duchy of Merovia (in Belisaria) and a syndicalist rebellion in the Confederation of Aɣmatia (in Scipia), which led to the two states to form as a transcontinental union in 1831. Mutual knowledge of, and trade between, the Amazighs peoples of ancient pre-state Scipian Messidor 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 the modern MU 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 1831 between both countries. Not much later in the 19th century during the beginning of the century-long Era of Great Nationalism (1840s-1950), the northern half of the current northwestern district of Scipian Messidor - Tafriqt (currently northern Kirthan) - was colonized by Yisrael as a protectorate. Relations were contentious through the Year of Blood (1950-51). After the collapse of the Empire of Yisrael, 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 ratcheted 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 Onekawan Affair, relations between both countries have turned hostile for the foreseeable future.
This was illustrated with the seven-week Onekawan Affair in late fall/early winter 2020, when the deployment of Onekawan training units and comments regarding their arrival sparked a quickly-escalating war of words between both countries, with the border being closed and mutual trade embargoes and economic sanctions slapped on each other by the other. The crisis was averted by a Latium-brokered deal, but foreign policy watchers note relations remain cold.

Trade and economics
In late 2020 amid the Onekawan Affair, industry experts on Messidor-Yisrael trade estimated bilateral trade ties worth approximate $5-9 billion shekels.
The Royal Yerushalayim Dispatch noted trade ties in a November 4th, 2020 article, saying that "[t]op Messidorian exports to Yisrael include mining ore, manufactured household goods, tea, kosher wine from the Tafriqt region (also known as the northern Kirthan area), and excess oil and petroleum products [...] Mining ore, gasoline, and petroleum products from the Timna Strip region were often sold to Yisraeli companies and factories in southern and eastern Yisrael as a cheap, nearby logistics source.
Manufacturers and retail sellers of household goods often sourced lower-cost lines of basic household items from Messidor in recent years or used cheaper MU inputs in their own products [...] Messidorian tea is popular in Dervaylik and other major cities, and there is a robust market for sweet wine grown and bottled on Jewish-owned vineyards in Tafriqt, many established during the Protectorate era (1833-1951). Rabbinical supervision from both Yisrael- and MU-based kosher supervisory organizations oversee the vineyards, which sell quite well in Yisrael as well as diasporic Jewish communities elsewhere."
Law enforcement
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 Messidorian-Yisraeli ties, both states signed a bilateral extradition treaty in 1967.
Military and security
Militarized border
The Messidor Union-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.
During the Onekawan Affair from mid-October to early December 2020, Messidor closed the border between both countries. It has since reopened, with full access granted on both sides. However, media in both countries have run stories based anecdotal accounts of more stringent border checks and screenings by regular border travelers. Both governments have denied implementing any such policies.
