To: Nations of the World
Greetings!
After some hiatus, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the United Kingdom of Brutland and Norden is pleased to announce the return of its embassy exchange program. It is a continuation of our old commitment to establish and nurture friendly relations with other nations.
Following this announcement dated March 5, 2009, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the City of Kingsville, with the help of funds from the Government of Brutland and Norden, undertook a revitalization of the embassy district in our capital, Kingsville, primarily to expand the capacity of the diplomatic quarter and preserve various establishments in the neighborhood. You can view the aerial view of our new embassy district by clicking the box below.
To this end, we have constructed seven embassy towers, each capable of handling 20-40 embassies each. Except for Embassy Tower 7, which will house deactivated Embassies of Absconded Nations* (Embasciatu di la Nazioni Ascondecca, ENA), and Embassy Tower 5, all of the nations placing their legations at the Embassy Towers will get to occupy two consecutive hemibuilding floors (for instance, a nation can apply to have their embassy placed on the 4th and 5th floors of wing B of Tower 6. This is to provide separate areas for the chancery/offices and the residences of the staff.) In Embassy Tower 5, nations will be given one whole floor, while in Embassy Tower 7, nations will be given one hemibuilding floor. See the next post to see where you can place your embassies.
With the towers in place, the City of Kingsville had temporarily placed a moratorium on the occupation of other lots in the embassy district (lots A-Z and a-t in the map below). In short, we regret to inform you cannot apply to have your embassy located on those lots, unless we are supplied with a good reason to occupy them, and that our decision is subject to the approval of the City Government of Kingsville.

Any special requests:
All applications shall be subject to the following rules and regulations:
1. The government of The United Kingdom of Brutland and Norden reserves the right to refuse the application of a nation. (We rarely do that anyway.)
2. The number of civilian staff may not exceed 100, and the number of military personnel may not exceed 15.
3. The number of vehicles is limited to 10, and it may be armored but not armed.
4. Weapons are limited to personal weapons only. The maximum number is one for each personnel.
5. The plot already has a building in place, ready for use. The nation can demolish and rebuild the building or make major changes to the structure. We encourage contacting the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. We would be willing to help should a decision to build an embassy is made. Note that obviously, this cannot apply to towers.
6. The plots/towers remain the property of the United Kingdom of Brutland and Norden, but the generally-observed conventions on diplomatic immunity and extraterritoriality apply.
In order to build better two-way relations, the United Kingdom of Brutland and Norden also wishes to build an embassy in your nation if possible. Just add details and specifications in your application post.
Thank you and we hope for closer ties between our great nations.
