Oldest alliance in the world

Is this why Rooney and Ronaldo stayed friendly?

yes probably :^0

we must have had a war with them since then though?

And it's all to do with booze. Magic.

there must be an older one than that. Between two African tribes going back thousands of years perhaps.

lol rustyboy

Africa is for sure the first place you would think for long lasting alliances :^0

not even in the 20th/21st century let alone 7 centuries

About as active as the Libera/SDP alliance though, isn't it?

We have in fact been at war with Portugal when it was part of The Spanish Empire, but I suspect not as a separate country.
The original alliance was down to The Black Prince`s last military adventure if I remember rightly.

There was an interruption for 60 years in 636 years

"The Iberian Union (1580-1640), a dynastic union between Portugal and Spain, interrupted the alliance. Portuguese foreign policy became tied to Spanish hostility to England. As a result, Portugal and England were on opposite sides of the Anglo-Spanish War and the Dutch-Portuguese War. The alliance was reconfirmed after the Portuguese Restoration War and the English Restoration."
