APPLICATIONS ARE CURRENTLY CLOSED
Current applicants will have their applications reviewed based upon FA needs ![[Image: jXTbjUN.png]](https://i.imgur.com/jXTbjUN.png) What is "foreign affairs"? To make it really simple, foreign affairs in NationStates is how regions and communities interact with one another. Opening embassies or signing a treaty are common activities that fall under the banner of foreign affairs. The Ministry's job is to represent TSP to the game, and be the conduit through which other regions formally interact with us. On a more complex level, the Ministry, particularly through the Minister, is chiefly responsible for knowing the ins and outs of the politics of Gameplay, which a term that describes the relationships, rivalries, friendships, and everything else in between players that influence raiding & defending (R/D), the World Assembly, and the large Game-Created Regions. The government looks to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to let them know what's going on with a scandal in a major region, or what machinations are happening behind the scenes with shifting alliances.
Who leads the Ministry of Foreign Affairs?
The Ministry is run by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, their deputy ministers (if appointed), and a council of advisors. Minister: Sandaoguo Deputies: None yet appointed Advisory Council: Roavin, Heliseum How do I get involved?

Diplomatic Ranks
Permanent Representative
Members of the diplomatic corps with a rank of Permanent Representative officially represent the South Pacific in missions created by multi-regional treaties. This rank may not be used if we are not currently a member of any multi-regional organizations. These diplomats have special qualifications for the subject the organization is about. For instance, if the South Pacific were to join a multilateral military alliance, we would send a Permanent Representative to the organization that has knowledge about military affairs. Permanent Representatives may also be used to represent the South Pacific in official NationStates bodies like the General Assembly or Security Council. Ambassador Ambassadors in the diplomatic corps represent the South Pacific in our allied regions or other regions of significance. Ambassadors are responsible for maintaining our foreign forum embassies for their respective region(s), and serving as the primary communication point between us and our allies. As such, members with the rank of Ambassador have experience with NationStates inter-regional politics and are knowledgeable about the region(s) they're in. Envoy Envoys represents the South Pacific in our non-allied regions, maintaining our consulates (or equivalent) abroad. Envoys are an entry-level rank and are responsible for publishing foreign dispatches and engaging with many regions in the game. Envoys may report to an ambassador to assist them if needed. Within the ministry itself, envoys will help with writing foreign dispatches that are posted across the game. As envoys learn more about the game and gain experience, they can be promoted to ambassadors. Advisor Advisors are internal members of the Ministry, who aid the Minister and the diplomatic corps when needed. They don't represent the South Pacific in other regions. Advisors are members of the Advisory Council, if the Minister chooses to form it during their term.

No List of banned regions: ("Unknown" if there aren't any) Unknown Statement: I have been interested in FA since the Laz coup as I saw the power FA can play in protecting democratic traditions. I am a quality candidate simply due to my knowledge in the inner workings of FA in the game and my ability to reach out to any region, even those we don't always agree with. You also know of my long term vision for FA in TSP so helping to build that is something I see as instrumental to the long term, not just success of TSP in GP but also in elevating us to being a superpower when it comes to GP.
