An ambassador is an official envoy, especially a high-ranking diplomat who represents a state and is usually accredited to another sovereign state or international organization as the resident representative of their own government or sovereign or appointed for a special and often temporary diplomatic assignment.

An ambassador is the ranking government representative stationed in a foreign capital. The host country typically allows the ambassador control of an embassy, whose territory, staff, and vehicles are generally afforded diplomatic immunity.

The foreign government to which an ambassador is assigned must first approve the person. In some cases, the foreign government might reverse its approval. This kind of declaration usually results in recalling the ambassador to their home nation. 

As an officer of the foreign service, an ambassador is expected to protect the citizens of their home country in the host country. When two nations are conducting a trade, it is usually advantageous to have an ambassador and living in the other land, where they act as an intermediary between cooperative businesses. One of the cornerstones of foreign diplomatic missions is to work for peace. This task can grow into a fight against international terrorism, the drug trade, international bribery, and human trafficking. Ambassadors help stop these acts, helping people across the globe. 

Ambassadors live overseas or within the country for long periods of time so that they are acquainted with the culture and local people. This way they are more politically effective and trusted, enabling them to accomplish goals that their host country desires.

Ambassadors are diplomats of the highest rank, formally representing their head of state, with full authority to represent the government. Ambassadors carry formal letters of credence from their head of state, addressed to the host country's head of state.

Suggested Characteristics

Diplomats require ongoing knowledge of international relations, and are often keen students of history. Diplomats nurture written and verbal skill, and use their charm and tact to defuse tensions. However, they must also be tough and effective negotiators and frequently find themself serving in dangerous territories. Physical and mental resilience are thus beneficial. A diplomat knows how to voice their honest opinion without betraying the loyalty of their government. They are analytical and detail-oriented but also flexible and able to take advantage of any situation. Many diplomats have been undone by a premature lust for power or irreconcilable differences in political ideology.
