	The Ambassador to the [[Commonwealth]] is an [[Imperial title]]. It is an Imperial position appointed by the Imperial Senate.		The Ambassador to the [[Commonwealth]] is an [[Imperial title]]. It is an Imperial position appointed by the Imperial Senate. The Commonwealth embassy is located along the river Couros, in the [[Highguard\|Highborn]] port-town of [[Necropolis#Hedrossan\|Hedra]]. The Imperial embassy to the Commonwealth is built in the rich city of [[Commonwealth_ports#Leerdam_(Eastern_Commonwealth)\|Leerdam]].


			While political relations with the Commonwealth were somewhat unpredictable, this changed with the formation of the [[Liberty Pact]]. In alliance with the Empire and the [[Sumaah Republic]], the Commonwealth helped strike the crucial blows that ultimately lead to the collapse of the international slave trade. For some years, the Empire and Commonwealth enjoyed a close alliance, that even weathered the Imperial decision to remain neutral in their war with the [[Principalities of Jarm]] (at least on paper). Recently, however, relations have deteriorated significantly over [[If_we_never_meet_again#Commonwealth\|Imperial revelations]] of the Commonwealth role in the destruction of the nation of Lantir and the incursion of [[Cold Sun]] in the east.

	Prior to the Winter Solstice 387YE, the Ambassador was able to purchase goods from merchants and those seeking favour. This was changed, along with the rest of the ambassadors, when the Senate voted to [[387YE_Winter_Solstice_Senate_sessions#Amend_Imperial_Embassies\|amend]] the embassies to end the practice, removing mercantile support and the upkeep costs at the same time.

	Originally, the Commonwealth embassy stood in [[Madruga#Siroc_(Ruined)\|Siroc]] in [[Madruga]], far away on [[the Brass Coast]]. In 385YE however it was destroyed along with the city by an alliance of [[Grendel]] and [[Asavean Archipelago\|Asavean]] forces (as recounted in the ''[[A beacon of smoke]]'' wind of fortune).

	Almost a year later in Summer 386YE, the Commonwealth ambassador to the Empire ''Militärattache Ludkhannah'', proposed a new embassy be built. Rather than a simple bureaucratic office, she suggested the Empire might work with the Commonwealth to establish a ''[[For_the_Common_Good#Fighting_Talk\|diplomatenschloss]]''. The Senate accepted, and work began [[Construct Diplomatenschloss\|almost immediately]].

	Obviously building the ''diplomatenschloss'' meant giving control of a powerful fortification to the Commonwealth, but the benefits were judged to outweigh the potential disadvantages. Should relationships with the Commonwealth collapse, it would represent an armed force within Imperial borders that could potentially prove to be a problem.

			As to the Imperial embassy to the Commonwealth, the port of [[Commonwealth_ports#Leerdam_(Eastern_Commonwealth)\|Leerdam]] is home to a palatial estate that has been made available for the use of Imperial civil servants. One of the oldest, and arguably richest, cities of the Commonwealth Leerdam, is a major trade hub. The staff of the embassy are often busy sorting out permits and opportunities for visiting Imperial merchants or fielding queries from Commonwealth traders eager to seek profit in the Empire.

The [[Fortification#Bastion\|bastion]] stands in Hedrossan, and the [[Fortification#Garrison\|garrison]] is made up of Commonwealth soldiers.
