Diplomatic corps

Japanese: 外交団 - がいこうだん(英語表記)diplomatic corps
Diplomatic corps

The diplomats of the various countries' diplomatic missions in a country (capital) are collectively called the diplomatic corps. The most senior ambassador is the head of the diplomatic corps (doyen), who represents the corps mainly on ceremonial matters, ensures that the privileges and honor of the diplomats are not impaired, and works to restore them when they are impaired.

Japanese:

ある国(首都)にいる諸国の外交使節団の外交官を全体として外交団という。先任の最古参大使が外交団長(ドワイアンdoyen)となり、主として儀礼的なことで外交団を代表するほか、外交官の特権や名誉が害されないように配慮し、それが害されたときは、回復するように努力する。
