legation

English to Spanish Other History
Tengo este pie de foto: South Korea, American Legation secretary and staff.

Encontré la definición: A legation was the term used in diplomacy to denote a diplomatic representative office lower than an embassy. The distinction between a legation and embassy was dropped following World War II. All diplomatic representative offices are now designated as embassies or high commissions.

La foto es anterior a la Segunda Guerra Mundial.

De antemano, muchas gracias por todas sus sugerencias.

Legación

Misión de rango inferior. Abundaron en Europa durante la II Guerra Mundial. Hoy han desaparecido al elevarse su rango al de embajada.
