History
The position of the ambassador was first created on 29 March 2021 along with the creation of a full-fledged mission located in Bad Oldesloe. The first ambassador and current ambassador is Jan-Olav Spiekermann who has been in office as one of the longest-serving ambassadors of the nation. The Ambassador to Germany was concurrently appointed as the Ambassador to Obscurium between 21 November 2021 and 17 May 2022 and later as Ambassador of Lehmark between 17 May 2022 and 20 April 2023.
In a cabinet decision, the regular diplomatic missions accredited to macronations which are unilaterally recognized by Vishwamitra were reorganized to honorary status on 8 May 2023. Thereupon, the status of the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary to Germany was changed to the position of that of an Honorary Ambassador. Spiekermann has since continued to serve as honorary ambassador in Germany.
