The Imperial and Royal government does gives out foreign aid, but not too often. We supply our client states. State governments are allowed to give foreign aid with the federal government's approval. Recently, The Kingdom of Bohemia gave 4 million Koruna (Krone) to Texas after an industrial disaster. Military foreign aid is very rare. The military serves Auzkhia, not lesser countries.

the only aid we are capable of is direct and in kind.
this we consider to be of greater value then monetary loans anyway.

The United Thedosian Republics has an entire organization dedicated to the distribution of Thedosian foreign aid finances to other countries. Though the actual aim of the organization is to assist third-world countries in development of their infrastructure, the United Republics Agency for International Development is also known for providing aid in times of natural disaster.

The Imperial Realm of Romberg is a net exporter of foreign aid, and has joined several multinational organizations solely for the purpose of helping to distribute aid to nations that may require it.

On the other hand, our nation completely rejects foreign aid, feeling that we should be able to handle internal matters ourselves. This is not to say that foreign investment is not encouraged by the state though.

We do not give any form of foreign aid, nor do we accept any foreign aid offered to us. Our country is not so weak that we must go begging to foreign nations to help us.

Occasionally, VERY occasionally we have given food aid to devestated friendly nations. Though this practice has stopped in light of worrying food shortages in our own nation.

Do you give foreign aid?
Yes, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs contributes to private organizations such as the Fatatatutti Relief Organization (FRO) which provides disaster relief around the world. There is also an ongoing initiative to provide medical care and education in underdeveloped nations.

Do you recieve any foreign aid?
We do "borrow" a lot of our technology, especially military, from foreign nations. But in terms of aid that is knowingly and/or willingly given to us, no.

Do you give foreign aid?

Yeah, we do. It's called "trade," and it works miracles, though we do sometimes engage in the more conventionally recognized form of foreign aid

Do you receive any foreign aid?

Not presently. We are a prosperous, stable nation which is generally capable of generating the necessary wealth to freely purchase anything we need.

GPH foreign aid is a recent phenomenon. Prior to the Windigo War, or Cold War with the Dominion of the Lubyak government aid was practically nonexistent. It was generally considered that the Constitution did not authorize the government to use the people's money for foreign charity. There were, however, large amounts of private aid from charitable foundations and religious organizations. Later, the idea of government aid became more accepted, particularly during the Windigo War, when foreign aid was an useful tool in shaping the GPH's international image and building alliances.

Today foreign aid programs of the GPH government are not very wide-reaching and it is estimated that private Herdite foreign charity going through similar channels beats the governmental one in scale by a large margin. However circa 2012-2013 the amounts of foreign aid issued by the GPH government have almost quadrupled compared to the levels during the final early 2000's stages of the Windigo War and the 2012's thaw, in particular due to the agreements with the states of Kaltras and D'halbrisir and infrastructural crises in both.

Our nation does give out a small amount of foreign aid but only for purposes of ensuring that people every where have access to clean, necessary resources like water, food, medicine, etc.

In recent years, our nation has actually cut the amount of foreign aid that is disbursed due to economic hardships. Hopefully it will be able to rise again at some point to help more countries.

No and no. Purpelia would newer stoop so low as to request or accept aid. And we would newer give any aid unless it came with a price most nations are not willing to pay.
Purpelia does not reflect my actual world views. In fact, the vast majority of Purpelian cannon is meant to shock and thus deliberately insane. I just like playing with the idea of a country of madmen utterly convinced that everyone else are the barbarians. So play along or not but don't ever think it's for real.
