It would be neat if there was some kind of diplomatic standard "culture" to avoid misunderstandings. I've read about Japanese diplomats and businesses feeling like their American counterparts are pushy and impatient, and the Americans feel the Japanese are stalling with formalities. The different ways of conducting business in different cultures makes it harder to clearly state your intentions. That's just one example, of course.

Ignore all the meme answers. Britain historically reigns supreme on the soft power front. Nobody excels more at backstabbing, manipulation and trading than the British. Divide and conquer may have been created by the Romans, but it was the British who made it an art form. The British are the Sea Jews, unparalleled in their profiteering. Why fight wars when you can pay others to do it for you? Why honour alliances when it does not suit you? Friendly, honourable diplomacy is for meme countries. Perfidious Albion is the Voldemort of diplomacy. Very powerful and effective at getting what it wants, but unfortunately evil.
