  • Abstract
    The article discusses the Eastern Asia Expedition in 1868-1869 and the sucessful Japan mission of Austrian-Hungarian diplomat Enrico de Calice [Heinrich von Calice], a native of Gorizia (now Italy) who exchanged the first treaty between the Austrian-Hungarian and the Japanese Empire in 1872. He later led the Habsburg Embassy in Constantinople, ending his long career in 1908 with a record long-standing mission of 28 years in the Ottoman Empire. He was very popular in the international press, especially in British newspapers, as his wife was born in Liverpool. He died in 1912, not only mourned by emperor Francis Joseph, but also commemorated by a number of superlative articles.
