Foreign affairs of Normark
This article delineates Normark's foreign affairs – which refers to Normark's relations to the world outside Elwynn and the Benacian Union.
In the beginning of 1703, Normark's government, having experienced confusion on the international stage with regard to Normark's status with the Benacian Union and the Elwynnese Realm at large, declared that it had assumed all such foreign affairs and military matters that belonged to the Elwynnese Realm prior to its Benacian territories' entry to the Benacian Union. Normark appointed then its first defence minister and first foreign minister, heading the Ministry of Defence and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs respectively.
The Union Defence Force in Normark was placed under the authority of the Ministry of Defence. The UDF responded to this declaration with an announcement of its own, that there had been a misunderstanding and that the civil executive of Normark would be placed in subordination to the Elwynnese garrison.
The Civil Executive in Ardashirshahr duly promised to send out a "Commissioner for External Relations", to be based in Elijah's Rest, to handle such matters as concerned Normark solely, in a manner that would be sympathetic to the local conditions.
