Aundotutunagir–Omigodtheykilledkenny relations refers to the diplomatic relationship between Aundotutunagir and Omigodtheykilledkenny. The two nations enjoy relatively close geographic proximity to one another, being separated by only a few hundred miles of ocean between Ameranta and Antarctic Oasis, and both have been affiliated with the World Assembly and the Antarctic Oasis regional network. Aundo-Kennyite relations date back to the early 1800s, and have remained largely friendly and informal; however, they have been subjected to occasional strain, including a major dispute over the neighboring Molotov island chain. Neither country maintains a official embassy in the other nation, but keep in touch through their respective regional and WA missions.
Prior to official contact in the 19th century, records indicate that the two countries had at least passing knowledge of each other. Late 18th-century Kennyite writings tell of "those freaking psychopaths in the South," and Aundotutunagirian accounts from around the same time speak of "those freaking psychopaths in the North." (At the time, Omigodtheykilledkenny was located in northern Ameranta.) Trade was established in the early 1800s, when Kennyite merchants began to visit Aundotutunagirian ports. The kingdom was eager to share its silks and spices with the Kennyite traders; unfortunately, they were equally eager to introduce them to opium. Not long afterward, Kennyite president Joseph Morrison developed an insatiable appetite for the Aundotutunagirian brown, prompting the first lady -- who effectively controlled the government while the president was in his frequent drugged-up stupors -- to ban the drug and close all Kennyite ports to Aundotutunagirian shipping. Trade was resumed when a new administration came to power in 1820.
Contact between the two nations increased after 1912, when the Kennyites acquired the Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz colony, which bordered Aundotutunagir, after the Kaiserreich Wars. (The Kennyites had no idea how to pronounce the name, so they changed it to Hooterville -- before eventually restyling it, a bit more elegantly, as "the Woodland territories.")
