AMICITIA, ae, f. = friendship, alliance
In Roman times "amicitia" described more a friendly relationship in the social and political sector and was therefore an important term also for foreign politics. For a more personal friendship the term "familiaris" was used.
amicitiam petere = to aim for friendship
amicitiam dirumpere = to break off friendship
