| I. PREAMBLE |
The Department of Diplomacy (hereinafter referred to as 'Diplomacy') is
formed by Article VI of the Constitution of FEDERATION COMMAND with the
purpose of establishing and fostering good relationships with
FEDERATION COMMAND and foreign Fleets whom are deemed worthy of contact
and to maintain those contacts therein after. This Charter is designed
to outline the role and structure of Diplomacy policies and procedures
as lawfully promulgated.

Diplomacy will be commanded by a Director of Diplomacy and a Deputy
Director of Diplomacy whom will assume the positions of Commanding
Officer (CO) and Executive Officer (XO) respectively.

the FEDERATION COMMAND with foreign Fleets.

| IV. STRUCTURE |
The structure of Diplomacy, including any sub-departments, is at the

| VII. NEUTRALITY
|
The choices made by Diplomacy in signing treaties are to be made with
the best interests of FEDERATION COMMAND in mind. They are not to be
