Although the Republic would never fall under direct Caphiric suzerainty, it would soon find itself under the suzerainty of a nascent and newly-unified Caphiric vassal kingdom in western Sarpedon, the [[Pelaxia|Kingdom of Pelaxia]]. First contact with the Pelaxians began in 1499, by that time Pelaxia had already established a colonial empire in [[Vallos]]. Because of the Republic's relative stability compared to most of the polities in Vallos and overall Latinic homogeneity, the Republic was not to be made into a colony, but rather a protectorate wherein the Republic will be allowed to maintain its internal affairs without interference while in return they allow the Pelaxians to hold the exclusive right to maintain a military presence as part of its efforts to maintain its hold in the Southern Route to Alshar. | Although the Republic would never again fall under direct Caphiric suzerainty, it would soon find itself under the suzerainty of a nascent and newly-unified Caphiric vassal kingdom in western Sarpedon, the [[Pelaxia|Kingdom of Pelaxia]].

The establishment of Pelaxian suzerainty over the Republic saw the emergence of a pelaxianised Latinic culture within the span of fifty years as Emeritan elites took on Pelaxian customs, traditions, and even a [[Emeritan Pelaxian|new vernacular of the Pelaxian language]] with many Latinic loanwords. By the year 1554, the Emeritans had effectively became a Romance ethnic group, a far cry from when they had seen themselves as a Latinic ethnic group. | The establishment of Pelaxian suzerainty over the Republic saw the emergence of a pelaxianised Latinic culture within the span of fifty years as Emeritan elites took on Pelaxian customs, traditions, and even a [[Emeritan Pelaxian|new vernacular of the Pelaxian language]] with many Latinic loanwords.
