Envoys from the court of Vienna appeared as early as the 16th century, but France and the nascent Habsburg Empire were often decidedly hostile to one another, as the end of the Italian Wars showed that the two states had conflicting hegemonic interests. There was a permanent diplomatic mission in Paris from 1679.[1]
