Answer and Explanation:

Many of the stories in the American Embassy focus on distraught relationships between men and women. Main conflict or you may say that a climax arises from the roles of women who are asked to play within their birth families and then in their romantic relationships. Most of the coupled female characters consider themselves in favor of their husbands or partners, hence losing sight of their own identities and sense of concern in the process. These stories are like a question means how and why this happens, and then set about being discovered what can be done about it.

In American Embassy, each story has its own protagonist:

An unnamed woman: Cell One

Nkem: Imitation

Chika : A Private Experience

James: Ghosts

Kamara: On Monday of Last Week

Ujunwa: Jumping Monkey Hill

Akunna: The Thing Around Your Neck

Another unnamed woman: The American Embassy

Ukamaka: The Shivering

Chinaza: The Arrangers of Marriage

another unnamed woman: Tomorrow is Too Far

and Nwamgba: The Headstrong Historian

There is no central antagonist, in most stories characters are struggling with social issues such as political upheaval, sexism, and racism.
