Embassy Exchange Program

The Unitary Technocracy of Etoile Arcture invites foreign nations to establish high commissions and full embassies for the purposes of formalising diplomatic relations, strengthening existing ties or to provide consular services to their citizens visiting Etoile Acture and Visa services for Etoilian citizens visiting foreign nations. All embassies and ambassadorial residencies are considered sovereign national territory.

Diplomatic Parc, Lake Concordia, New Corinth

Description

Newly completed, the Diplomatic Parc is part of the larger Lake Concordia Island Complex, a large development located within the heart of New Corinth, capital city of Etoile Arcture. The complex has already been home to the numerous Directorates (government departments) of the Unitary Technocracy for the last decade. Security has been a paramount consideration and the siting on a island limits access to several defendable bridges, while below the lake are located hardened bunkers and a underground railway for rapid evacuations in event of an emergency. Movement throughout the island is by means of an automated electric light railway, while road and rail communication links exist to New Corinth, and a direct air service (by passenger tiltrotor) operates between the island and New Corinth International Airport.

All embassies are assigned their own block, a 5,000 square metre plot, as grounds to locate an embassy and ambassadorial residence. Up to one hundred blocks are available in total within the Diplomatic Parc, of which over half have already been built. The typical embassy building consists of two basement levels including a underground car park, four main floors and a recessed top storey. Buildings may be configured with their own atrium or water feature and may contain courtyards and gardens. Diplomatic staff are entirely free to alternatively rent or purchase properties in New Corinth, and are otherwise encouraged to sample the rich cultural life the city has to offer.

Restrictions

All embassies and ambassadorial residences are considered by the Etoilian government to be the sovereign foreign territory of that nation. But foreign diplomatic personnel are not exempt from local laws when outside their own sovereign territory.

Security personnel assigned to diplomatic missions must apply and receive special carry permits for personal defence weapons. Only small arms limited to tazers, hand guns, submachine guns, assault rifles and shotguns are licensed for legitimate self-protection. Heavier armament such as crew served weapons are not permitted to be brought on to Etoilian territory. Violations of these rules and of local laws may lead to expulsion.

Diplomatic missions are free to bring their own transport, restricted to limousines, sedans and SUVs. Embassies are expected to contain at the bare minimum: a Ambassador’s Office, Consular Section, Visa Section, Trade Mission, Political Officer, Public Affairs Department, and Management Section including staff.

The Diplomatic Directorate is pleased to announce that Vault 10 and Ruccola are the latest nations to establish embassies at the Diplomatic Parc in Lake Concordia.

We would like to make sure if it is allowed to bring sports coupes, or, if not, to purchase them on spot. In the traditions of our nation, being chauffeured is only considered appropriate for the injured or handicapped, and as such our personnel would prefer proper private vehicles.

If required refuelling is easily available in your city, all of them will be hydrogen or electric powered.
The Diplomatic Directorate does not foresee any issues concerning the import or purchase of sports coupes for the use of Vault 10 embassy staff. Legislation passed during the 1990s mandates all private and public road transport in Etoile Arcture to be hybrid-electric drive (HED), all-electric or alternatively fueled. Most road users have subsequently opted for the first option, including the government that has a fleet of Acuras and Hondas converted to HED by Sequioa Automotive Systems, and take-up of alternative fueled vehicles is presently very low largely due to cost.

At present there are therefore only two hydrogen refueling points in the whole of New Corinth (including one at New Corinth International Airport), and very few located throughout the nation. The Diplomatic Directorate would consider constructing a hydrogen refueling point within the Diplomatic Parc to support Vault 10 vehicles. Alternatively, you may elect to purchase HED vehicles in Etoile Arcture.
Vault 10
19-05-2008, 20:43
We're pleased that our nations both share careful attitude to the environment.
Our reason for the inquiry was that the production of fossil fuel powered civilian vehicles ceased long ago, shifting to nuclear/hydrogen cycle, so we would have some inconvenience adapting back.

As long as electric recharging stations are sufficiently available, we would prefer to mostly use our all-electric vehicles, as particularly long travel would be rarely required. When needed, we'll use locally procured vehicles compatible with available fuels.

Thank you for the response.
Etoile Arcture
23-05-2008, 14:26
A transition to a hydrogen economy has been under consideration for over a decade, but the technical and logistical hurdles have proven great. Nonetheless, impressive though not entirely dramatic reductions in carbon emissions have been achieved through mandating HED and alternative fuels for transport and marine propulsion, low fuel burn aviation, low-energy consumption technology, and the phase out of all fossil fuel power plants in favour of all-nuclear power generation. The Science Directorate has been impressed at Vault 10s success in creating a sustainable hydrogen economy, and this may be one of many areas of common interest to our nations that may lead to inter-governmental cooperation and collaboration.

Dear Sir or Madame,
We wish to thank you for your application for an embassy in the United Socialist States and are pleased to announce that said application has been accepted, and Ambassador McChord has received a letter alerting him of this pleasurable news. An embassy exchange will make sure that the diplomatic relations between both of our nations are strong, and economic and cultural ones will come suit, and strengthen as well. Thank you for this opportunity.

Please, if there is anything you will need from New Brittonia, just let us know. We will be sure that your message will not get lost in the government bureaucracy.

If you want to establish a diplomatic meeting, just ask, and I will make such a meeting possible.

Thank you,

Dear Sir/Madame,

We enclose a completed Embassy Request. We trust all will be in order.

Full Name of nation: The Commonwealth of Brittanican Adenia
Your Ambassador’s name: Doctor Owen Thomas
Prior relations with Etoile Arcture (if any): None
Alliances a member of: None
Other international agreements/treaties signed: None
Domestic system of government: Constitutional Monarchy (Parliament)
Do you wish to exchange ambassadors?: Yes
Do you wish to establish trade relations?: Ideally - Brittanican Adenia is an exporter of high-precision goods and chemicals, including aircraft electronic components and organic chemical standards for laboratories and lower-grade chemical manufacture. Brittanican Adenia requires a small import of oil in petroleum and diesel forms (the majority of our oil production goes into the chemical industry for export), alongside with other harder-to-find ingredients to many chemicals. However, we are quite open to negotiations concerning cross-border co-operation between financial institutions, and other possible enrichments.

We wholeheartedly look forward to relations with your fine nation.

Yours,

Classification: Restricted, Eyes Only
Subject: Diplomatic Recognition

I regret to inform Minister Medvedev that my government cannot at this time recognise the Federation of Stoklomolvi as the due representatives and lawful government of Stoklomolvi while your nation remains gripped by civil war. The constitution of the Unitary Technocracy prohibits us from interfering in the internal politics of any sovereign nation. Therefore to grant official recognition and an embassy would constitute a violation of our laws by effectively offering support to one of the combatants in a civil war.

At a future time should the Federation of Stoklomolvi become the government of part or all of Stoklomolvi it would then be possible to offer full recognition and an embassy in the Diplomatic Parc. In the meantime my government extends the hand of friendship to all sides in the current conflict. Should the Federation choose, we would accept a diplomatic mission to Concordia for the purposes
opf having discussions with your officials on the humanitarian and aid situation, and in how to bring about a speedy resolution to preserve lives, property and the territorial integrity of Stoklomolvi.

The Central Ministry wishes for a formal exchange of embassies between the Central State of Agrandov and the Unitary Technocracy of Etoile Arcture. As a free-market nation we expect any trade relations to take care of themselves, and a large plot in the centre of Alkra City has been earmarked for development for the Unitary Technocracy should this offer be accepted.

The Central State wishes for an embassy suitable for up to forty (40) personnel and up to ten (10) vehicles. Ideally a landing zone for two (2) helicopters should be provided, although we recognise that this might be unreasonable. We are open to suggestion in this area.

The equipment brought into Etoile Arcture will be made available for inspection for a period of 72 hours, after which privacy should be guaranteed. We expect this gesture of honesty and transparency to be reciprocated should the Unitary Technocracy want an embassy in Agrandov.

I write on behalf of President James Dwight, even though he is being a total dick to me at the moment, Prime Minister Erica Ornan, who I have to admit is pretty foxy in a labcoat, the Quintessential Congress, who for 87 years had a ban on 'tosspot', which turned out to be a typo, and all the people of Quintessence of Dust, EXCEPT Mrs Hilda Scroggins of 43, Ironside Close, New Cleethorpes, WS.

A small nation with a historically limited role in international affairs, we are desirous of expanding our friendly relations, and as such I have instructed by the above named band of wastrels, losers and junkies to extend my heartfelt greetings to the Unitary Technocracy. In demonstration of our desire for reciprocal good tidings, we suggest an exchange of embassies.

On behalf of my fellow countrymen and women I welcome the ambassador's for the Holy Empire of Zaheran, Republic of Allidore and Quintessence of Dust to the diplomatic parc.

It is our intention to take up the Zaheran offer to exchange diplomatic missions as possible, and I also wish to thank Secretary of State George W. Madison for the kind gifts you have sent my office.

In return I would like to send a few personal gifts to welcome the new ambassador to Etoile Arcture, including a fine wine and cheese selection, some parking permits (which I am sure will come in very handy for the ambassador) and a Doctor Who sound effects double CD.
