The Arabin Department of State (DOS), commonly referred to as the State Department, is a federal executive department responsible for carrying out Arabin foreign policy and international relations. On March 10, 2020, the Department of State took on the responsibilities of the Department of Foreign Affairs after President Lona Freeman dissolved the department.
The department is led by the Secretary of State, a member of the Cabinet who is nominated by the President of Arabi and confirmed by the Senate.
The State Department is headquartered on the Henry K Crow Building, a few blocks from the Capitol Building in the District. The current Secretary of State is Kari Henry, who was nominated by Lona Freeman.
