But the people are Ambassadors; isn't "Dignitary" a bit vague?  I agree on Justice, though.

Some regions might use terms like "Liason" or not even assign a particular person and just pop on themselves sporadically, so a broad term like "Dignitary" is likely to more accurately represent our allied region visitors.

Justices are now Purple, I believe.

I like Dignitary, if the Queen came to America, she would be considered a dignitary just the same as the British ambassador to the United States. Dignitary is a sort of catch-all term that is really appropriate in our case.

True.
"I believe every single person is extraordinary. The tragedy is that we
have a society where too many people never get to fulfill that
extraordinary potential. My view – the liberal view – is that
government’s job is to help them to do it. Not to tell people how to
live their lives. But to make their choices possible, to release their
potential, no matter who they are. The way to do that is to take power away from those who hoard it. To challenge vested interests. To break down privilege. To clear out the bottlenecks in our society that block opportunity and block progress. And so give everyone a chance to live the life they want." - Nick Clegg, Leader of the Liberal Democrats and Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom
