[ Open ]
Salutations! It is with great honor that I, under the authority of my government and people, extend a warm welcome, and a firm hand towards you, and your people; With the utmost honest of intentions, to bring peace between our respective countries. It is the intent of my government to welcome a representative from your country to act as an ambassador to our nation, so that our two nations may become much closer than possibly ever before. Before you consider dedicating resources towards a diplomatic mission, please take the time to read a small overview so that you can consider if this is the right choice for you and your people.
The Unified Earth Governments is a democratic federation, composed of several dozen systems each with their own administration. While there is some self autonomy, all systems and planets within follow a singular constitution and the central authority from Earth. The UEG is predominately Human, although with a notable small minority of other alien species, and an unregistered amount of synthetic intelligence. Culturally homogenous, there is little difference at first glance of what was once an Eastern or Western cultural trait at one time, and what isn't, much of Human culture is a mixed bag of adopted and appropriated concepts, that have been turned into a cocktail of experiences and ideals since the late 20th century. With a population of around 500 trillion people, the UEG encompasses a area of space known as the local cluster, a region within local citadel space, and boarders the Turian and Batarian governments.

Your Countries Diplomatic Mission
Under the Citadel Conventions; Embassy grounds, along with consulates are the sovereign land of the country which occupies that embassy space. Only significant powers or special cases are permitted the right to have a specified embassy be constructed, which will be discussed during talks. Embassy grounds will be within the ocean side residence of the planet Mindoir, which is a major trade hub for the UEG, and is thus a major government and economic zone. The Embassy locale will primarily be placed in the Odysseus Resort, which was given to the Government after a closed deal. In the case of significant nations that make a request for an embassy, they can choose to occupy more space, all the way to having their own building be constructed, special cases may also have property built if necessary.
