Note on Institutional Titles

Institutional titles — including office, mission, representative, and ambassadorial designations — are reproduced as they appear in the Kingdom's own records and in primary-source documents held in the archive. Their reproduction does not imply accreditation, credentialing, or recognition by any government or international organisation unless a cited external source explicitly establishes that fact. Where no such source is held, the title is recorded as an internal appointment of the Polynesian Kingdom of Atooi. Traditional and chiefly titles are given in their own language and are not translated into Western equivalents such as “King”, “President”, or “Minister”; where an outside publication uses such a translation, it is marked as that publisher’s wording. Where a person’s exact title is not established by the record, neutral wording is used — traditional leader, customary leader, Indigenous leader, or Kingdom representative.
