Empire of Albion-Merité
Foreign Relations
The Empire of Albion-Merité wishes to establish diplomatic relations
with those states across Vexillium that it shares common interests.
To that end, the Foreign Ministry was created. The Foreign Ministry
is the part of the Albionish government responsible for establishing Albionish
diplomatic missions in foreign states, and setting up foreign missions in
Tabrik, the previous capital city. Since the relocation of the imperial
capital to Azhincour in 1594 (305AP), all incoming diplomatic missions have
had the option to establish themselves in either the current capital city,
Azhincour, or in the historical capital with other long-standing diplomatic
missions in Tabrik. Albionish ambassadors and consuls are appointed
by the emperor upon recommendation from the foreign minister. The current
foreign minister is Lord Mercutio Aehrenthal. On November 7, 1588
(299AP), the foreign ministry officially released the Albionish diplomatic
seals. Two were ordered by the emperor to be created: one for Albionish
embassies, and one for consulates.
These seals will be displayed both on the front gates of Albionish
diplomatic missions, and where appropriate by foreign governments.
On November 5, 1588, the emperor approved the foreign ministry's proposed
foreign policy. According to the policy, the empire will establish
diplomatic relations with foreign states in three phases. Phase I commenced
on November 7, with the foreign ministry offering diplomatic recognition
and relations to its neighbors and the Kingdoms of Eastern Zartania and Christiana.
Phase II will involve the establishment of relations with other monarchies
throughout the world. Phase III will establish relations with "select
non-monarchical states." Shown below are the states with whom Albion-Merité
currently enjoys diplomatic relations, as well as those international organizations
that the empire has joined.
