Pieter van der Berg (born 1703 AN) is an Anglian diplomat who serves as the first Ambassador of the Free Duchy of Anglien to Nouvelle Alexandrie, resident in Cárdenas. He has held the post since III.1755 AN, when Anglien opened its embassy in the New Alexandrian capital, and was appointed by Sovereign Duke Edgard III on the advice of Minister of External Affairs Anneke Brandsen under the foreign-affairs prerogative set out in the Charter of Anglien.
Trained in law, van der Berg practiced in Johannsessbuurg and served in the provincial administration of the Grand Duchy of Lac Glacei before the NKR insurrection, and spent the years of the occupation in exile in Nouvelle Alexandrie, where a large Mala'anje and Alexandrian Nazarene diaspora had settled. He returned after the liberation and joined the newly established Ministry of External Affairs in 1754 AN, becoming one of the first cohort of Anglian heads of mission as the duchy built out its diplomatic network the following year. As ambassador he has concentrated on the reconstruction grants coordinated through the Concord Alliance, consular protection of the Anglian diaspora, and the cultural and dynastic ties that bind the two states.[1]
