The Global Alliance of Sovereign Nations is proud to announce the newest section of its alliance, The GASN Aid Program. This program is open to all the nations of the world that are in some sort of crisis, be it post-war post-disaster rebuilding, a major stock market crash, etc. There is no restrictions on who may apply, from the smallest nation to the largest, the GASN Aid Program is open to all. At this point, the Illiorian Government and the Cravanian Governments are the two largest supporters, and have created quite a stockpile of different goods and services that can be requested by any nation.

The combined Resource list is as follows (((OOC note: These stockpiles have been accumulating for quite some time, with my donations beginning back in october, and Cravan including his in mid march, so the absurd amounts of money and supplies are not just godmodded out of thin air, they've actually come from somewhere))):
Monetary funds: 749,500,000 Million USD
Food and Drink
-11,700 tons of corn
-620 Tons of Grain
-550 Tons of Beef
-400 Tons of Potatoes
-2340 tons of canned fish
-117 Million gallons of water
-2340 town sized water filtration systems
Medical Needs:
-15,380 tons of Medicine
-2270 tons of Medical Supplies
-Six international aid teams of 500 aid workers each, to be dispatched when and where required
Construction Needs:
-773,000 tons of building supplies
-Tax incentives for contactors willing to assist devastated nations in rebuilding efforts
Education Needs
-2,000 "Take a student home" openings per year.
-Funds for the construction of 3 universities per year

To access any part of the stockpile, the applicant must fill out the GAPARF (GASN Aid Program Aid Requisition Form) as follows.

Full title of nation:
Current type of government:
Current Economic Rating:
Current War/disaster/recovery: (Leave a link if you wouldn't mind, but if you're just planning to do it as an RP, just leave an OOC note saying so)
Funds Requested:
Where the funds will go towards:
Supplies needed to keep its citizens alive:
Will the aid workers be needing Protection for any reason while in the nation? (If yes, specify why):
Any other current Aiding nations?:


After this form has been completed, analysts and planners at the GASN Aid Program's headquarters in Illior will look over the form, look at the incident, the country's current economic situation, other aiding nations and the type of current government to come up with the best aid package possible, consisting of a low interest loan (.5-3%), and a timetable for aid workers and supplies to get to that nation, and how it will get there. If necessary, the head planner will call for military protection if he or she decides that the aid workers will be threatened or endangered while in the other nation. Once the proposal has been drawn up, it will be sent to the Director of GAP's office, and to the head of the current government of the applicant nation for signing, agreement and any addendum that needs to occur for the aid to begin to flow into the other nation.

May the GASN Aid Program help all the needy nations,
[Signed]
Joshua Langston Lahiri
Director of the GASN Aid Program.

Nations in the Program
Allanea-45 Trillion USD loan, at 1.5% total interest.

OOC Notes:
1. I love the idea that other nations would like to support and contribute to this cause, but again, I will note that this is for GASN members only to contribute to. It seems like a lot of people want to help other nations, so in the very near future, I'll be starting an international Aid organization to coordinate it all.

Very Unofficial Report

Oh. So anyway, Allanea had had something of a Great Depression of our own.

Basically, a too-large percentage of our private currency had been intentionally inflated by malicious foreign businessmen. Now, today, the value of our currencies is back, and unemployment and such things are back to their proper level, and yet investment level is at an all-time low, and the stock market has not quite picked it up yet.

So, could any GASN powers provide some form of help here, for example by encouraging their companies to invest in Allanea?

Our commonwealth would like to donate 10,000 hours of prisoner work time to be used in humanitarian missions associated with your Aid Program. The prisoner will be guarded by our own security personnel alongwith supplies will also be donated, we do ask that we get 2-3 weeks notice when our help is needed as to prepare the transport of prisoners, equipment and other materials.

The St. De Greco Foundation offers 5 billion USD, 6,000 General Doctors, and 300,000 care packages (basic supplies and extras, such as rations, candy, small toys, stuffed animals, etc.) to this cause.

We wish to become more affiliated with the organization, and propose an "adoption plan"- where citizens of richer nations can provide small amounts of money and gifts to unforturnate children of the world.

From the Desk of the President Elect of the Confederacy of Subantarctic Islands.
Government House.
South Georgia Island.

Dear Sir/Madam of the GASN Aid Program,

We are a newly established nation consisting of a united confederacy of the Subantarctic Islands of South Georgia, South Sandwich Isles, Kerguelen, Gough Island, Marion Island, Crozet Islands, Heard Island and the Amsterdam and St Paul Islands. This confederacy has been established by will of the populace as a break-away from the corrupt regime of the United Continent of Antarctica. As you may imagine a newly-formed nation like ours, consisting of the populace of small, barren islands faces great difficulty in establishing ourselves as a stable nation as our economy is immature and current services/supplies available on the islands are scarce. We have until this point been dependent solely on the economy and supply line of the United Continent of Antarctica. We submit the following completed application for aid from your benevolant cause in order that we may begin the process of building our nation into a stable, independent member of the world community.

Yours Faithfully,
Arthur Donahue

President Elect of the Confederacy of Subantarctic Islands.

"Penguin's Feet Don't Freeze"

Full title of nation: Confederacy of Subantarctic Islands
Current type of government: Socialist Democracy
Current Economic Rating: Fragile
Current War/disaster/recovery: Newly established nation breaking from the United Continent of Antarctica (RP to follow)
Funds Requested: 5 billion US dollars
Where the funds will go towards: Establishment of 2 hospitals located in South Georgia Island and Kerguelen Island respectively, Building of public buildings in all Confederacy Islands inc police premisis, schools and government offices, Water sanitation of current settlements within the Confederacy islands, Establishment of independent bank of the confederacy (replacing former circulating currency of the United Contenent of Antarctica), Renovation of current ports/harbours located throughout Islands within the Confederacy to promote international trade and fishing industry growth.
Supplies needed to keep its citizens alive: 20 tons of medicines, 10 tons medical supplies approx, any available aid workers trained in medical professions due to lack of trained staff available
Will the aid workers be needing Protection for any reason while in the nation? (If yes, specify why): Uncertain, dependant of response of United Continent of Antarctica to Cofederacy of Subantarctic Islands decleration of independence. Possible military backlash.
Any other current Aiding nations?: None at present

OOC: thanks to all of you that are outside of GASN and wanted to donate, but as the title says "GASN Aid Program". If there's really enough outcry, I'll start an International fund as well. And to all of the GASN nations, I'm getting to it
IC:
FROM THE DIRECTOR OF GAP'S OFFICE

I thank all non-GASN nations for their support, but at this time, the only persons allowed to contribute to this fund are GASN nations. There is plans in the works though for an Illiorian Led International Aid Fund if you are so truly interested in helping other nations.

FROM THE DIRECTORS OFFICE OF THE GASN AID PROGRAM
At this point in time, as Director of the GASN Aid Program, that Allanea is the first nation to receive the benefit of the GASN Aid Program. At this time, the GASN aid program has found it to be to the benefit of the Allanean economy to loan 45 Trillion USD at low interest to a diversified group of Allanean companies, to be paid back over thirty years at a rate of .05% annually or 1.5% overall. At this point, the Allanean government has OKed the loans and has given the GASN Aid Program a list of the companies that will take part of the loan. May the Allaneans use this loan well, and may their economy come back full force.

Free Outer Eugenia's major education collectives have always welcomed students from abroad. As The Federated Anarchist Communes operate on a cashless mutual aid economy, there is no tuition. Each student however puts in the minimal 15 weekly hours of labor that is expected from everyone in the federation.

Our land is also open to any and all refugees.
