The Amathian-Gaullican Friendship League is the oldest currently still existing cultural organization in Amathia. Founded in 1801 by King Alexandru de Tresia-Telois, the then-leader of the Amathian cadet branch of the Telois dynasty, a well-known Gaullophile and a renowned scholar. The League was at the forefront of Amathia's Gaullican obsession, a cultural and linguistic period that started in the 1750's, promoted by Amathia's new Gaullican Kings, in which the Amathian elite adopted the Gaullican language and customs, sending younger generations to study in Gaullica, and changing Amathia's culture and language irreversibly. During this era, the royal capital of Cluzia was known as "the Little Verlois"

Despite the events of the Great War and the ban declared by the Equalists against pro-Gaullican organizations, the League continued to exist, both secretly in the country and openly abroad, retaining an important role in the homeland's passive resistance and in the organization of the Amathian emigres. The fall of the Equalist regime brought the League back into legality, and while the glory of years past has been lost, the League continues to be one of the largest cultural organizations in Amathia, with an extensive cultural program. Its efforts after the Revolution were rewarded with Amathia becoming an official member of La Gaullophonie, and with the Gaullican language returning to its status as the most learned second language in Amathian schools.

The League has a well known rivalry with the Amathian-Narozalican Friendship Association, as the two organizations harbor vastly different views and compete for government funds and cultural influence.
