Ambassador

An ambassador is a diplomatic officer who represents a political body. Ambassadors may be assigned as long-term liasions to foreign governments, or as at-large "troubleshooters" carrying out specific diplomatic missions.

Some noted ambassadors include:
 * Soval of Vulcan, Vulcan ambassador to Earth
 * Jonathon Archer, Earth ambassador to Andoria
 * Sarek of Vulcan, ambassador at large
 * Spock of Vulcan, ambassador at large; special envoy to Romulus
 * Curzon Dax, Federation ambassador at large
 * Worf, Son of Mogh, Federation Ambassador to Qo'noS
 * Alexander Rozenhenko, Federation Ambassador to Qo'noS
 * Quark, Ferengi ambassador to Bajor


 * In both canon and non-canon Star Trek, some apparent members of the Federation Council have been addressed as "ambassador" rather than "councillor", most notably Sarek in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home. It is unclear whether "ambassador" is a correct form of address for members of the council, or if this honorific is reserved for members with prior diplomatic experience.
