Oportia–Order of the Holy Lakes relations
The relations between Hurmu and the State of Oportia were formally established in 1716 after nine years of informal relations, after Prime Minister Patrik Djupvik visited Vanie. Talks began on opening formal trade routes. In line with Oportian libertarian free market policies, adjustments had to be made whereby Hurmu agrees to import without tax anything exported from Oportia that is legal under Hurmu law; and vice versa. In 1719, Oportia joined the Xäiville Convention, having been sponsored by Hurmu to do so. Ten years later, Oportia left the Xäiville Convention but joined the Raspur Pact, thus becoming a member of the Hurmu–Raspur Pact Free Trade Agreement. Thus trade between Hurmu and Oportia was largely unaffected.
