@Charles: Improving.

Like all Mirusians, the Waptoria was still distrustful of France after the Second War of the Mirusian Coalition. What set the Waptoria apart from the other Mirusians at this point was not trust, but the willingness to talk and compromise. Unlike the Mirusian Triumvirate, the Waptoria saw the necessity to establish a working relationship with the Xonexi, which kept relations from detoriating and even led to some marginal improvements.

However, relations would not truly advance until France promised to relinquish leadership of the Covenant of Mirus (after their failure to keep the Pseudopath-Scythe for leaving?). Soon after, an totally unforseen, the UDP would also leave the Covenant, which the Waptoria took as a personal betrayal. This forced them to work even more closely with the Xonexi, and to the Waptorian-Eldarsian thaw. During Marier's presidency, you have a period where Waptorian relationships with Eldarisia would be better than those with France, though, by the time of the Hand of Ruin and Baako's premiership, the Waptorian relationships with both would be truly cordial. It goes without saying that Baako is hugely popular in the Waptoria, and by the time of Mirus divided, you'd have the Waptoria seriously concidering an alliance.
