Unified Danaan Embassy Thread

[The Resurgent Dream]

The Danaan High Kingdom of the Resurgent Dream has always considered diplomatic relations to be the norm between states not actively engaged in hostilities. Therefore, any and all nations are welcome to establish embassies in the Resurgent Dream and to receive embassies from the Resurgent Dream under the following terms.

Your Embassy in the Resurgent Dream

Diplomatic Immunity: The Resurgent Dream recognizes diplomatic immunity for all diplomatic personnel. This does not include support and security staff. Diplomats are immune from personal liability under Danaan law. However, they represent their nations and their actions have diplomatic consequences. The Resurgent Dream reserves the right to withdraw diplomatic immunity with two weeks’ notice. The person concerned may use the two weeks to vacate Danaan territory and his or her home government may use it to replace the diplomat. In general, diplomatic immunity shall only be withdrawn in a case of a suspected felony.

Extraterritoriality: The Resurgent Dream recognizes extraterritoriality of embassies. The Resurgent Dream does not exercise jurisdiction over the physical territory of foreign embassies. Embassies must be reasonable in size in order to claim extraterritoriality. Extraterritoriality is revocable with two week’ notice. The use of embassy grounds to prepare for offensive military activity or for engaging in any activity directly threatening the physical safety or personal liberty of individual Danaan citizens shall constitute an act of provocation leading to the immediate revocation of extraterritoriality.

Location: Nations are free to purchase embassy space in and around Tarana. If a nation is unable or unwilling to purchase the space itself, they may contact the Ministry for Foreign Affairs and space will be obtained for them at cost.

Slavery: Slavery is not allowed even within your own embassy. It is not legally enforceable on Danaan soil and it is not possible to reach any embassy without flying over Danaan soil. If this is something your nation practices, you may still have an embassy. However, leave the slavery at home.

Danaan Embassies Abroad

Personnel: Danaan embassies are extensions of Danaan will and we reserve the sovereign right to determine who represents us before the world. Therefore, while we acknowledge the right of other nations to refuse to accept specific ambassadors, we do not establish embassies in nations which seek to impose religious, racial, class, or sexual restrictions upon our staff. We also do not fill out any form which asks for the political persuasion of the ambassador. Ambassadors represent national policy, not personal views.

Safety: While we have long given up on insisting on diplomatic immunity, we do insist on reasonable respect for diplomatic rights and personnel. There was a period in history when one or two nations embarrassed themselves frequently through the random and petty arrest of diplomats. We never dishonored ourselves by subjecting our diplomats to their jurisdiction nor will we do so with any similar nations which might arise.

[New Amerik]

The Empire of New Amerik is interested in starting an embassy in Unified Danaan. Before that, however, we would like to know requirments, info. about plots, and a price number.

[The Resurgent Dream]

((The requirements are those listed above. The prices are those on the real estate market and depend on location and size. There are literally thousands of plots and prices. If you must have on spelled out, you can get one for 130,000 USD in downtown Tarana. I've always avoided going out of my way not to do the unrealistic embassy application/list of addresses thing with my embassies in the six years I've been here.))

[New Amerik]

In the intersts of establishing an embassy, New Amerik would like to buy a small building in your capital for... is $230,000 good? We have recently found a potential new trade partner, so we are willing to spend more if needed. After we finalize the buying plans, we will start shipping in our ambassador, his service helpers, and equipment for starting the embassy. Currently, we are making an offer for the buying of a building to serve as the embassy..

[The Resurgent Dream]

The New Amerikans are easily able to find a building from that price, purchased from Winslow Real Estate.

[Platinea]

To the Danaan High Kingdom of the Resurgent Dream,

The Republic of Platinea wishes to acquire a plot of land for an embassy in Tarana, within 15 minutes of the airport and 20 minutes of the central business district. Horacio Menendez, who currently serves as our ambassador to Mexico, will take on the role of ambassador to your nation.

I'd like to pass on a few requests: first, that you inform your chamber of commerce that Plavia is seeking support from foreign investors and that business opportunities for airport hotels, restaurants, and shops are available at Artigas and the Aerolineas Platineas-owned Serena International Airport in Solyhniya, and second, that Aerolineas Platineas be permitted to enter into negotiations to open up passenger and cargo service to major international airports in the Resurgent Dream.

Sincerely,
Juan O'Reilly, Minister of Foreign Affairs

[Vesser]

Official Communication from the Confederacy of Vesser

Prime Minister Jones,

The Confederacy of Vesser, per our agreement, wishes to build an embassy in your nation. We request a 500x300 plot of land in Tarana for V$375,000 ($150,000). We request that it be in a relatively stable neighborhood, within 50 m of a police station, and that our guards be equipped with SUB-2000 Carbines and Glock 17 pistols, modified to carry .40 S&W bullets.

Signed,
President Augustyn Kwiatkowski

[The Resurgent Dream]

There ware no large plots that close to a police station. Other than that, Vesser and Platinea found everything they wanted.
