Domestic and foreign in the context of politics refer to the actions' scope.

A nation's "foreign policy" is how a nation chooses to interact with other nations.

Meanwhile, "domestic policy" is defined as decisions that affect occurrences inside a nation's borders.

Foreign = outside country

Domestic = inside country
