Officially, other countries refused to intervene in the Spanish Civil War. However, some nations did provide secret aid.
As fascist nations, Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy both provided support to Francisco Nationalist forces sending troops (for example, the German Condor Legion) and supplies. The Soviet Union supported the Republican government, providing them with weapons and combat advisers.

French, British and US citizens were forbidden from joining by their governments but large numbers joined anyways. Many ended up in the famous "International Brigades" fighting for the socialist Republican government. Small numbers fought for the Fascist government, most notably the Irish Blackshirts lead by Eoin O'Duffy.
