The Most Serene Empire of Azzurria establishes and maintains diplomatic relations with other nations through the Secretary of Foreign Affairs.
The Secretary has the power to grant "states of friendship" and tacit recognition, but official recognition of another nation can only be granted by an Act of the Light Blue Commission or a Royal Decree. In rare case, it can be granted also by a referendum (for example in case of disputes between two or more Nations/Micronations for the same territory or parts of it).
However, the Secretary of Foreign Affairs of the Most Serene Empire of Azzurria has the power to ratify treaties of mutual recognition and diplomatic affairs, only after had received the authorization from the Emperors with a Royal Decree.
The Most Serene Empire of Azzurria has, since its independence, diplomatic relations mainly through the MicroWiki Community, but also holds friendly relations with other States found around the web.
The Most Serene Empire of Azzurria actually keeps mutual recognition and diplomatic relations with thirteen Micronations, opened twenty-one foreign embassies (updated to January 2017) and is the founding member of the Society of Italophone Micronations, of the Society of Micronations, of the Micronational Union of Twin Towns and co-founder of the Azzurrian-Unironic Economic Pact.
The Most Serene Empire of Azzurria claims a tacit recognition from Malaysia and from Spain, after that its official Twitter account has been followed by official people and Offices attributable to them.
The Emperors, being also the leaders of the Nationalist Party of the Most Serene Empire of Azzurria, have the power to grant honorary citizenships and honorary titles to other heads of State and/or other notable persons.
The only one case of Sovereignty dispute is about the territory itself, disputed between the Micronation and Italy.

Sovereignty Disputes

  •  Italy claims the whole territory as its own.

Key points of foreign policy

A micronation can be a good candidate for get diplomacy and mutual recognition if respects, shares, agrees and matches the following points:

  • Promotion of peace, neutrality, democracy, human rights and freedoms.
  • Promotion of the respect for every religion, faith, race, sexual orientation and the absolute condemnation of every kind of discrimination.
  • The micronation must be at least 6 months old. This can be void for micronations located on Italy or with Italian as national language.
  • The micronation must have a website with clear and truthful information (population, goals, territory, flag and so on).
  • The micronation must exist in real life, located on a true place on the Earth planet.

If a micronation should violate one of the previous points after got mutual recognition and diplomatic relations, the Most Serene Empire of Azzurria reserves for itself the right to cut the mutual recognition and diplomatic relations, especially in cases of human rights violations and if the micronation shows a belligerent behaviour, starting offensive wars (no matter against who).
The only way to apply for diplomatic relations is through the online application on the official website.
