Information Liaison to [Selected Named Entity]

In this role you will collect contact and background information on behalf of the Kingdom for external organizations such as, but not limited to, micronations, NGOs, companies, charities, or other public facing entities.  You will prepare a brief and offer analysis of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats should the Kingdom attempt to engage.  Each liaison will be specified, and does not open a formal relationship -- this position focuses on gathering data and intelligence.

If you have interest in this role for an entity on THIS LIST (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vpj7FD31PbEan0JZXZeXWKION0WpNZG2vdJ6xm7uaKY/edit?usp=sharing) or for others to be added to the list, please respond in this thread or PM (https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?action=profile;u=5) or email foreign@talossa.com

Do you have a specific entity from THIS LIST (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vpj7FD31PbEan0JZXZeXWKION0WpNZG2vdJ6xm7uaKY/edit?usp=sharing)  you would like to pursue first, or something not listed yet?  The concept is to pursue one at a time.

Information Liaisons will only pursue one entity at a time until their SWOT analysis and report is approved.
Thus far that list includes

@Breneir Tzaracomprada as Information Liaison (https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=5041) for Asgardia (https://micronations.wiki/wiki/Asgardia)

@Mximo Malt as Information Liaison (https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=5041) for the Republic of Slowjamistan (https://www.slowjamastan.org/)

Position Summary
An Information Liaison serves as an independent investigator and collector of information about an external entity (such as a micronation, community, organization, or group). The Information Liaison's primary responsibility is to research, monitor, and report accurate and relevant information back to the Talossan Government to support internal decision-making, potential future engagement, or understanding of the entity's culture, structure, activities, and relevance. Unlike ambassadors or consuls, an Information Liaison does not represent Talossa in official diplomatic functions, negotiate agreements, or act as a legal representative of Talossan interests.


The following external entities have made contact with the Kingdom, if there are others who have have interest in developing a report:

Cultural Republic of Auralis (https://www.auralisrepublic.site/)

Principality of New Rome (https://www.new-rome.org/)

Socialist, Democratic, Popular Republic of Saint Précheux le Marais (https://temp-vosxtvtouftdkvafyvnt.webadorsite.com/)

Ok - I will PM you a detailed job description to consider and agree to, then I will submit the posting to be approved by the Crown.  I will submit myself as information liaison to the Republic of West Who at the same time.

This is a DRAFT example of what an Information liaison would collect for a KoTEER (Kingdom of Talossa External Entity Reference)

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1hCjNgppFDrZa3GC0U_9nKv-e3cuJRnoZX4wb8qNi190/edit?usp=sharing

This DRAFT was compiled using available references and has not yet been validated by the entity referenced.

Submitted a draft of the information liaison report for Asgardia. Once this one is approved I am ready to start work on the next one.

What did you think about Asgardia? They are quite an interesting group.

-Txec R

I agree they are quite interesting. In my report, I mentioned their deployment of a satellite into space and our former space agency as a potential point of cooperation. There is concern from a democratic point of view on how long their Head of Nation has served but their elections appear to be free and fair. They do have a monthly citizenship subscription which has clearly been used for their online infrastructure which is light-years ahead of Talossa presumably due to that stable and plentiful funding. Talossa should consider some kind of low-cost subscription (we have kinda started it though) which might include some kind of occasional paraphernalia or other perks.

I believe the concern is that some "micronations" like Slowjamastan, Sealand and Asgardia is that Talossa does not sell its citizenship, and it's right there in the oath "the best thing money can't buy." I'd be wary of subscription based stuff and prefer voluntary contributions (some kind of recognition would be nice though).

I would not frame it as selling citizenship as their contributions would not be contigent on becoming a citizen it would entail them getting Talossan products such as paraphernalia. We do need to address the fact that without stable funding we are limiting our ability to produce what we want and election-fee based fundraising is inadequate. A look at Asgardia showed me this.

Yeah I can see that as long as citizenship is not part of the deal.

I appreciate the research by Breneir - I will remove the SWOT and seek confirmation of info, then post to a beach umbrella as approved by l'Etats (working on an interactive map for that and homesteads). 

Later, if the Kingdom generates closer ties, then perhaps a consulate or embassy could be offered in the GTA, subject to discussion with one of those provinces, unless of course some other lands are appropriated for that purpose.

Looking forward to the next assignment. @xpb I would also reiterate my invitation for a representative for the Foreign Ministry to discuss this project on an episode of FT's Abbavilla Digest. The February edition is coming tomorrow but planning is underway for the March edition now.

I am interested and My interests are those micronations:-
1.Ladonia
2.Slowjamastan
3.Aerican Empire
4.Westarctica
5.New Athens
6.Republic of Auralis
7.Circle of Belmoor
Those are my interests ,that i can work.

Thanks, I will send a PM.  The Foreign Ministry will be making another suggestion for Royal assent soon but you could do some independent prep for the first entry on your list as the second is already under assignment.

He's still a prospective citizen, although that should change pretty soon. We can't make any appointments until he becomes an official citizen.

Understood that this is very preliminary, but would provide the perspective through the eyes of a new immigrant.  There is no restriction on someone being prepared for an eventual potential task if they have interest.

Oh, absolutely! I think it's great, and I love it when immigrants are enthusiastic. I think you're doing an amazing job with this.

@xpb I noticed that the informational liaison position is listed on the Seneschal's List but it does not list the current liaisons. Is this normal?

When an external contact comes in, I will place it under Information Liaison as "External Request" - these would be potentially be the most active ones, although some are very new and may not have much information yet. Another entity I reviewed indicated they don't even consider diplomatic relations until a specific micronation has been active for at least a year.

There are a couple of DRAFT Factbook links - note that the basics of these will be sent to be verified by the external entity as correct (without our internal-only SWOT analysis) and then move to a prepublished level.  Having a Factbook entry does not indicate diplomatic relations, but is a precursor to any potential relationship.

I can gather info of
1.Ladonia
2.New Athens
3.Aurelia
4.Aerican Empire
