      Diplomacy has existed since the beginning of the human race. The act of conducting negotiations between two persons, or two nations within a large scope is essential to the upkeep of international affairs. Among the many functions of diplomacy, some include preventing war and violence, and strengthening relations between two nations. Diplomacy is most importantly used to set a specific agenda. Therefore, without diplomacy, much of the world's affairs would be abolished, international organizations would not exist, and above all the world would be at a constant state of war.
