The Kingdom of St Samuel has marked a large section of the Peace Haven district, in the capital, St Rudolph, to be set aside for foreign embassies. The King now extends his hand of friendship to all nations which would like to begin diplomatic ties with St Samuel.

For all intrested parties-

- Name of nation

- Name of ambassador

- Size of embassy requested

- Millitary/Security numbers (Please note, the Department for Homeland security will not allow a legion of troops armed to the teeth. A small detachment of ceremonial guards would be more suitable, as the St Samuel Police and Royal Praetorian Guard will be tasked with security outside of the embassies)

Regards,

Maxiumus Julius
Minister for Foreign Affairs

The PDSRA would be pleased to establish diplomatic relations with a new nation. We always welcome new ties of friendship.

Name of nation: Ariddia, People's Democratic Social Republic of

Name of ambassador: His Excellency, Comrade Frédéric Stadijciuc

Size of embassy requested: Small to moderate will be fine.

Millitary/Security numbers: four ceremonial guards

We also request the name of St Samuel's return ambassador to the PDSRA.

OOC: The NS Wiki page for Weyr is very, very out of date and quite incrrect for many things.

Consul-General Josiah Willard Gibbs read the latest draft, sharp gray eyes quickly scanning the green text projected on screen. Had his office been on the other side of the towering structure that was Council Hall, he would have been able to look down and watch the last floors of the expanded Embasy Tower rise up day by day. The Tower was old, two hundred years old, in fact. But its skeleton was still capable of easily supporting the extra weight.

The draft was good. He just hoped that someone would take interest. Embassy Tower was quite empty, very empty, despite the general information that anyone could claim space in it for an embassy even, in theory, private corporations. He added his electronic signature stamp, and sent it shooting through the data net of Council Hall.

Re: Diplomatic Exchange

The First Distributed Kingdom of Weyr is interested in creating diplomatic ties with the Kingdom of St. Samuel. A delegation of:

1 Ambassador [Ambassador Saya Ferl Akimoto]
1 Diplomatic attaché
1 Commercial attaché
1 Cultural attaché
1 Defense attaché
24 General staff
8 Diplomatic Security Corps

are standing by for your approval. Since local situations may require adjustments to the above, especially the security detail and associated staff, the Diplomatic Service may lower or request an increase in staff if deemed necessary.

If possible, we would like to rent or purchase a building/office space to act as our embassy. Barring that, we can also construct our own structure. All structures and/or modifications will comply with local regulations to the utmost possible extent. We request that any such regulations be forwarded to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Diplomatic Service, Construction Subdivision, at your convenience.

Space for your delegation is available within Embassy Tower, where all known foreign embassies within Weyr are located. Floors 52-70, and 100-260 are available at this time. Each floor has approximately 25,000 square meters of space. The Diplomatic Service provides security, basic services, and secure telecommunications. Furniture, electronics, special services, and any other amenities are provided upon request. The Diplomatic Service pays for all services. It should be noted that security and safety of any foreign delegates is not guaranteed outside of Embassy Tower unless Diplomatic Service staff accompanies those delegates.

Embassy Tower is located in our capital city of Wye, a megapolis of approximately 700 million persons built on the southwestern slopes of Mt. Weyr. We recommend that foreign delegations arrive via Wye International Skyport, where Diplomatic Service officials can meet them. Wye International Skyport is fully equipped to handle gravShips and magShips, as well as more traditional forms of transportation. Craft that may be too big to be handled by the skyport, or that cannot handle atmospheric transit, should dock at Earthbound Station No.2, located in geostationary orbit over FDK-Terra, from where they can use a shuttlecraft to enter the Skyport. Should any state not possess an adequate means of transportation into Earthbound Weyr, the Diplomatic Service will provide one free of charge.

Naval transports should arrive at Southgard Landing, from where they will be escorted up River Wye to Wye City. We request that all unauthorized craft, foreign and native, stay out of the Ward Zone, marked visually and electronically by anchored transponder buoys.

Any foreign entity can also construct or rent a structure or space outside of Embassy Tower. However, the First Distributed Kingdom of Weyr cannot be held responsible for the safety of that structure, or for the safety of the persons residing within it. Diplomatic Service can provide limited security for the said structure, but cannot guarantee the integrity of that security. Furthermore, the availability of secure communications, services, and transportation for such a structure or location may be limited.

The First Distributed Kingdom of Weyr has no restrictions on trade, and permits nations to freely buy and sell all goods and substances within its borders. This includes, but is not limited to: weapons, toxic substances, motor vehicles, WMDs, foodstuffs, raw materials, and finished goods. Distributions and Municipalities may place their own restrictions on items that may be traded within their borders. The First Distributed Kingdom of Weyr cannot be held responsible for damages or misunderstandings that may arise as a result of said restrictions. This status quo cannot be restricted or expanded upon by any treaties.

The First Distributed Kingdom of Weyr does not recognize extraterritoriality. Weyr’s judiciary will try any foreign delegates or visitors in accordance with Weyrean law if deemed necessary.

This includes:
- Trial by an elected jury or judge[master] within seven days of arrest
- A free advocate, to be given upon request
- Communication with any party, after arrest, via a monitored link
- The ability to sue for personal damages incurred while under arrest

Foreign delegates are permitted to have their home nation pay for the court fines. It should be noted that Weyrean courts issue sentences that are monetary in nature.

Weyrean Standard Law has only three crimes: murder, theft, and malicious manipulation.

Distributions and Municipalities may add their own laws and regulations, or nullify existing laws, and may enforce them as semi-independent states within their borders. Entities signatory to the Common Economic Protocol (CEP) may enforce the laws and regulations of other signatories within their borders. The Distributed Kingdom of Weyr takes no responsibility for any problems or damages that may arise due to this.

Weyr is not interested in military alliances at this time. However, Weyr holds a policy of non-aggression towards all nations. Commercial, cultural, and military issues should be discussed with the appropriate attachés after a stabilization of relations.

Size of embassy requested: Small to medium 2-3 story building
Millitary/Security numbers: 6 unarmed and highly trained canine/human gaurds. They make good represenetive citizens and make great photo ops. Yes, children are allowed to ride on them.

Of intrest, I, the president of the Alliance, can transform into an Irish Wolfhound. This unique feature was wrongly implemented, but It does help create unity among the population. It would be an honor to have an embassey in a country of such high stature, so this is progress to us.
If interested, we have a spot for your embabssy available if you wish to persue our offer in the future.

Thank you for listening.
