Throughout the 16th century, Urcea and Caphiria maintained friendly relations within the context of the {{Wp|Protestant Reformation}}. Both countries were strongly opposed to the Reformation and made various efforts to prosecute the {{Wp|Counter Reformation}}. Both sides signed various treaties of friendship which committed both countries to countering Protestantism in the [[The Islands (Urcea)|Islands]] and [[Urlazio]] area, and the treaties envisioned military cooperation by both parties to ensure that region remained [[Catholic Church|Catholic]]. Caphiria did not involve itself in the [[Great Confessional War]], but also refused to recognize the Protestant [[Julian_dynasty#Ronan|House of Ronan]] during their time as [[Apostolic King of Urcea|Apostolic Kings]] from [[1546]] through [[1565]], offering comfortable shelter to the members of [[House de Weluta]].

====Urcean conquest of Crotona====
Urcea completed its conquest of [[Crotona]] in [[1660]], bringing to a close a process of increasing Urcean influence which began in the 13th century. The establishment of the [[Kingdom of Crotona]], a crownland of Urcea, also included the direct incorporation of the Urcean possession [[Halfway]] into the Kingdom. It followed this move up with the conquest of [[Tromarine]] in [[1670]]. The sudden adjacency of Urcean territory to [[Urlazio]] and mainland [[Sarpedon]] greatly alarmed Caphirian leaders, as within the span of two decades Urcea had established a ring of forward positions around the [[Sea of Canete]] to the exclusion of Caphiria. Although Caphirian leaders ultimately did not go to war over the establishment of Crotona, the ruling class suffered a humiliating loss of face as theories of [[Levantine Creep]] began to take hold in earnest throughout Caphirian society.
====Early 18th century détente====
Although relations worsened significantly between Urcea and Caphiria in the 17th century, the dawn of the 18th century introduced a level of calm and stability between the two powers. Urcea's increasing involvement in the [[Holy Levantine Empire]], culminating in the [[War of the Caroline Succession]], shifted focus away from Sarpedon and the [[Odoneru Ocean]] eastward towards [[Dericania]] and the Empire.
