"Under the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, everything within these walls is U.S. sovereign territory. Everything beyond the boundaries of the mission is Ruridova, specifically, the city known as Cydysa. During the riots, the Embassy was placed at a state of heightened alert in case of any attack. All gates and secure doors were kept sealed basically at all times, and the access locals had to the compound was heavily regulated. All local security guards were allowed to take paid leave to see to their families, but those remaining joined the Marine Guards on extra shifts here. The help was deeply appreciated. If anybody had mounted a serious attack we would have been in trouble. Fort Apache was a cool movie and all, but I wouldn't want to relive it."
