All countries whom are not considered rivals and accept our requirement are applicable for an embassy in our guarded embassy campus in the capital Eee-que.
The Sophisticated Ministry of Foreign Affairs, headed by Geugyr Gorge, is responsible for all construction and maintenance costs.
Laws and regulations:
Please carefully read these rules before applying for an embassy.
Immunity:
Ambassadors, consoles and other diplomatic representatives protected from any prosecution according to Sophisticated Immunity Laws. If a diplomat is accused for a severe crime, the Sophisticated government may request the represented government to remove the diplomat's immunity. If the government refuses, Sophisticated authorities may expel the diplomat. In this case, he will be required to leave the country within 48 hours.
Embassy security staff are eligible for immunity only in their working shifts. Security staff abusing their authority or power outside working hours will be prosecuted according to Sophisticated Laws.
Embassy service staff, including chefs, doctors, maids, drivers, etc. are not eligible for any immunity.
Extraterritoriality:
Extraterritoriality applies in all embassies and consulates. Sophisticated armed or police forces may not enter any embassy or consulate without permission from the ambassador/console.
However, Sophisticated Police may block the entry or exit of people to the embassy (excluding ambulances, fire fighters and supply vehicles) if a high security threat (i.e. terrorist) is in the building and the embassy refuses to hand him to the police.
Embassy lots:
Every embassy will be given a 800-1300 square metre lot, depending on its needs. According to urban laws in Eee-que, a maximum of 5 floors (15 metres) is allowed per building. Any building taller than 15 metres will not be accepted.
Security:
All embassies are to be located in the Embassy Square, a highly secured district. Prince Gorge has founded a special security force, privately funded by him, to ensure the security of all foreign representatives.
The whole district is fenced, and entry is only possible through 4 guarded gates. Every person entering the area goes through a strict security check to ensure the safety of the diplomats inhabiting the area.
Every embassy may also hold a small, basic, security force. No more than 15 guards are allowed. Every guard is allowed to carry a pistol. In addition, every embassy is entitled to have up to a total of 4 sniper rifles, assault rifles and submachine guns for the guards to use.
The rifles may not, however, be taken out of the embassy.
In addition, 2 bodyguards are allowed per diplomat. Bodyguards may carry pistols, shockers and pepper spray.
Transportation:
Any unarmed vehicles are allowed. Armoured vehicles are allowed.
The embassy square is located 15 minutes drive from Eee-que international airport. Any embassy willing to park a jet in the airport is required to pay a $1,500 monthly fee.
In addition, a two slot heliport is available for the diplomats' use. To minimize noise disruption, the heliport is only active between 09:00 to 13:30 and 16:30 to 20:00 daily. Flights arriving after activity hours will be sent to Eee-que international airport.
Boats may be anchored in Manastreblyn port, located 30 minutes drive from the Embassy Square. The port is guarded 24 hours daily to ensure the safety of all equipment.
Emergency Services:
A large emergency station is located right outside the embassy square. A crew of 250 employees (doctors, paramedics, fire fighters and ambulance and fire-truck drivers) is present in the station to ensure the safety of the embassy square and nearby neighbourhoods.
