Diplomatic missions of Japan
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Japan had been sending ambassadors to the Tang Chinese court in Xian since 607 AD, [1] but for centuries early modern Japan did not actively seek to expand its foreign relations. The first Japanese ambassadors to a Western country traveled to Spain in 1613. All five converted to Christianity and were promptly executed upon their return [2], bans on Christianity having been imposed in their absence. It wasn't until 1860 that Japan opened an embassy in Washington, D.C.
Listed below are all Japan's diplomatic missions abroad, excluding any honorary consulates:[3]
