Capital punishment laws by nation

Capital punishment, also known as the death penalty, is a practice which is intended to kill a person as punishment for crimes they have committed, otherwise known as an execution. It is mostly carried out for the most egregious offenses such as murder and treason, though laws vary by country historically. Common methods include death by firing squad, lethal injection, stoning, and the electric chair. In the modern world, many national governments now view these practices as inhumane, and a significant number of nations have severely limited the extent of the death penalty or outlawed it altogether.

Summary of legality by nation

Nation	Legality	Total executed (2018)	Murder	Treason	Espionage	Rape	Child sexual abuse	Drug trafficking	Grand larceny	Petty crimes	Notes
Alrig	Illegal	589									While Alrig does not have the death penalty, Tegong agents venturing into Alrig to execute enemies of the Jingdaoese state are not hindered.
Elwynn	Illegal	0
Jingdao	Legal	3,251,329									All breaches of codified law or the Will of the Heavenly Light are punishable with the death penalty. It is performed when a criminal is considered to be more trouble alive than dead, regardless of the gravity of his crime. Mentally disabled people are only executed when they are found to be guilty of especially grave crimes such as murder or rape and are exempt from being punished for insulting the Heavenly Light which is usually only a capital offense.
Kalgachia	Legal	classified									Kalgachi legal proceedings are based more on precedent, official discretion and parochial variation than on adherence to rigid codes, thus the conditions for a death sentence vary widely by case and jurisdiction. Criminal proceedings for a given offence traditionally serve as a pretext for a wider assessment of the offender's character and societal harm; first-time offenders with good references are therefore shown leniency whilst persistent recidivists can (and do) receive the death penalty for the smallest of infractions if it completes a picture of their unreformable character.
Krasnocoria	Legal	21,436									The death penalty is practiced regularly in Krasnocoria, and is given for a variety of crimes. Public support for the death penalty has consistently hovered between 70 and 90 percent for the past several decades.
Nijima	Illegal	N/A									N/A
Senya	Legal	6	Possible	Possible		Possible	Possible	Possible		Possible	Whilst Senyan law has provisions for the death penalty, it is rarely used. No crime is directly punishable by the death penalty, though serious crimes (such as terrorism, murder, rape, child sexual abuse and crimes against the society) can warrant the death penalty under the following conditions; The prisoner requests execution The prisoner has completed 21 years in prison but has shown no remorse or behavioural improvement and is seen as being a risk to the public if released The prisoner has re-offended Interestingly, Senya does not have life imprisonment, the maximum sentence is 21 years. Before a prisoner can be executed, there can be no serious doubts that the prisoner is actually not guilty.

Methods

For those nations in which capital punishment is legal, a variety of methods are practiced. The following is a summary table of the practices which those nations use.

Nation	Lethal injection	Gas inhalation or asphyxiation	Firing squad	Electric chair	Hanging	Stoning	Beheading	Other	Notes
Jingdao									Executioners in Jingdao are fully licensed medical professionals who are valued for their creativity. While all normal methods are used, executioners who consistently stick with them are seen as underachievers. Executions usually take place within hours after the sentence, if not directly afterwards.
Kalgachia									Ketherist teachings hold that the celestial forces of evil obtain equal power from all human suffering (the nectar of the archons) whether it be of their agents or adversaries. To deny them this sustenance, execution methods are required to be swift and efficient; long-drop hanging is preferred although firearms are used in more summary proceedings.
Krasnocoria									Inmates on death row have the right to choose from a selection of execution procedures. Executions are usually carried out within 6 months of sentencing.
Senya									Firing squad of five police firearms specialists.
