Foreign Policy

Zavidia, committed to building strong global relationships, has outlined a foreign policy focused on collaboration and mutual assistance. We seek to strengthen ties with Spain, Suriname, and Spanish and Dutch-speaking countries, recognizing the importance of cultural and linguistic diversity.

Our collaboration with Spain is highlighted by our shared historical and cultural connection, while with Suriname, geographical proximity and resource complementarity present opportunities for mutual development and regional stability.

In the Spanish and Dutch-speaking sphere, we promote cultural diplomacy to enrich global dialogue. Grounded in solidarity, Zavidia pledges to be an active player in international initiatives promoting development, peace, and justice, thus contributing to a more cohesive and secure world.

In Zavidia, the highest representative of the state in terms of foreign policy and international diplomacy is the king, while the body responsible for planning, directing, executing, and evaluating foreign policy and international cooperation, with special attention to Spain, the Netherlands, Dutch-speaking countries, and Ibero-America, is the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

For now, the Kingdom of Zavidia maintains relations with several micronations, leading the United Micronations Federation (UMF). Additionally, it has multiple contacts in local governments in Spain, as well as in the Argentine embassy in Madrid, not to mention the accreditation process for an honorary consul in the United Kingdom.

Diplomatic Relations

As part of its projection and future growth, the Kingdom of Zavidia seeks to create and maintain diplomatic relations with accredited governments and organizations worldwide. Among these are:

1. Local Governments in Spain

The Kingdom of Zavidia has established solid connections with local governments in Spain. In particular, we have a large number of contacts within the Trade Association of a nearby locality, which encompasses more than 200 businesses of various types. This connection has facilitated the exchange of ideas and resources, promoting the development of Zavidia and the growth of our team in multiple ways.

Additionally, Zavidia maintains close contact with a relevant local political party, which has opened channels of dialogue and the acquisition of new ideas. These relationships are complemented by our access to several councilors, with whom we have held fruitful discussions to advance Zavidian projects, thereby consolidating our influence and presence in the region.

2. Consulate in the United Kingdom

The Kingdom of Zavidia is currently in the process of accrediting an Honorary Consul in the United Kingdom. This consul is part of a diplomatic family with a distinguished history as consuls and representatives in the United Kingdom, ensuring a high level of experience and professionalism in representing Zavidia's interests in the country.

This initiative aims not only to formalize our presence in the United Kingdom but also to deepen bilateral relations in key areas such as trade, culture, and international cooperation with both micronations and local governments in the archipelago.

3. Contacts at the Argentinian Embassy in Madrid.

The Kingdom of Zavidia has had numerous accredited contacts at the Argentine Embassy in Madrid for years. These contacts could be instrumental in strengthening our diplomatic ties and facilitating cultural and commercial exchanges between Zavidia and Argentina in the future. For now, they are valuable in developing institutions and various sectors of the project.

Cooperation and International Aid

Zavidia's International Cooperation and Aid policy is focused on helping to improve and encourage peace, economy, culture and population around the world. In relation to this approach, Zavidia maintains open campaigns such as “Reborn Spain”, aimed at addressing the problem of an emptied Spain through the repopulation of abandoned towns and those in the process of abandonment. This not only seeks to revitalize communities, but also contribute to the economic and social flourishing of the affected regions, working closely with local authorities and civil society.

Zavidia also has two ambitious campaigns that seek to strengthen the economy and global collaboration: FinanMax and Group II.

FinanMax, an initiative aimed at grouping and financing various companies and investors from around the world, has the objective of helping anyone in the world to undertake and invest, creating their own businesses and attracting those already created, in a future, designed to help to stimulate economic growth in Zavidia.

This project facilitates the association of capital, promoting investment both nationally and internationally, and thus generating an environment conducive to business development.

On the other hand, Group II represents a complementary strategy to FinanMax. This project seeks to join forces with international companies and actors to foster collaboration. Group II, like FinanMax, reflects Zavidia's commitment to global cooperation and the search for solutions to economic and social challenges.

Both projects will be essential pillars in the creation of the future Zavidia to consolidate its position on the international scene, attracting investments, promoting strategic alliances and contributing to economic development.

Furthermore, Zavidia has the vision to invest in future projects in various strategic locations. Especially in needy areas. Future investments are also being considered in Spain, Latin America, the Caribbean and its small nations and in Suriname, always seeking economic support for the investment areas and the increase of diplomatic relations with them.

Aid to micronations around the world also stands out, with the Federation of United Micronations coming into play, led by our country, which plays a key role in promoting cooperation and development among micronations.

This organization brings together and supports diverse micronations, facilitating the exchange of resources, knowledge and experiences to strengthen and grow their communities.
