Foreign relations of Slin
Foreign relations (diplomacy) was carried out uniquely in the former Slinky Empyre. Its foundations were friendship and then neutrality. June was known as the Month of Dyplomacy.
Friendships
Instead of making allies with other nations, the Slinky Empyre executed informal friendship. This meant that both nations recognized each other as friends, but are not bound to each other's terms. The Slinky Empyre promises to be faithful to all nations in a friendship, which means that peace shall be maintained with that nation as well as possible. Along with this pledge, the Slinky Empyre hopes to maintain contact with these nations to accomplish goals of both nations, and other friendly acts/assistance.

On June 15, a friendship with the Socialist Republic of Murrayfield was started with the approval of Premier Ben Lawson. This was done to encourage peace in Murrayfield, which was in a state of civil war.

The Suilandic people even began using the Slinky Documents to help find a suitable government for their nation.
