Emancipation: Can I Become Emancipated in New York State at Age 16 to Emigrate Alone to the Dom Rep

My question involves juvenile law in the State of: Emancipation.

I live in New York, and I am currently 15 years old and I turn 16 years old in October. I am currently enrolled in a public high school and will enter the 11th grade, but I have enough credits to graduate at the end of my Junior year a year early.

I want to be emancipated after graduating from high school at age 16 so I can move to the Dominican Republic in order to live on my own and get a job there.

I am both a citizen of the United States and the Dominican Republic because I was born in the Dominican Republic, but I was also born a US citizen because my father was a citizen prior to my birth, and I arrived in New York at 8 months old and grew up there.

I currently don't have a job and I live with my parents, but I plan to get a job so I can buy my own stuff and sustain myself, as well as to earn and save some money so I can pay for the trip.

I plan to find a place to live and a job when I arrive to the Dominican Republic, maybe live with one of my relatives or if I am unable to find a job, I can ask my family to send me money until I can find one.

Also if I get emancipated in the New York, would my emancipation also be recognized in the Dominican Republic (or in any other foreign country)? And if I can't be emancipated, can I still move to the Dominican Republic and work there on my own, and do my parents in the United States still remain my legal guardian while I am living in a foreign country, or can the guardianship be transferred to a relative who lives in the country I want to migrate?
