United States Department of State and Foreign Affairs

The Department of State and Foreign Affairs is the Federal-level foreign and intergovernmental affairs ministry of the Government of the United States. In its role as a Federal-level foreign ministry, the Department serves as the common representative of the eighteen States of North Aegea relative to the Common Foreign and International Trade Policy (CFITP). In respect to the Department’s role as a Federal-level intergovernmental affairs ministry, State and Foreign Affairs essentially operates as a reverse foreign ministry of sorts, whereby relations and communication are directed inwards, focusing on the eighteen member States of the Union &mdash;e.g., Federal-State relations, in a functionally equivalent Manner as the intergovernmental relations between the United Nations and its member States. The Department is also responsible for diplomatic-aspects of national security at the Federal-level, and for coordinating the efforts of the several States in implementing the CFITP.

The Department of State and Foreign Affairs is headed by an United States Commissioner for State and Foreign Affairs, usually shortened as “Secretary of State”, and sometimes referred to as the “Secretary-General of the United States”, who is the “the principal assistant to the Governor-General in all matters relating to the Department of State and Foreign Affairs.”
