ambassadorship
Foreign representative role
Ambassadorship is the position or tenure of an ambassador—a nation's highest-ranking diplomatic representative to another country.
The term covers both the office itself and the period someone holds it: Her ambassadorship to France lasted four years.
Ambassadorships are often political appointments, sometimes given as rewards to major campaign donors.
