---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Abolitionist | Ajerrin | 2003 | n/a | 2003 | Lethal injection or Firing Squad | Capital punishment was made illegal when The People's Constitution was ratified by all states in 2003. |
Retentionist | Aleia | 1981 | 0 | n/a | Firing squad | Although Aleia still retains capital punishment for high treason and war crimes, no execution has taken place since 1981, and a moratorium is effectively in place. There are however still 11 prisoners currently on Aleian death row, with the most recent felon incarcerated in 1999. |
Abolitionist | Template:Country data Aquidneck | 1970 | n/a | 1975 | Lethal injection | Abolished by the passage of the Criminal Justice Reform Act of 1975 by the Senate. |
Retentionist | Aramas | 2017 | 297 | n/a | Crucifixion, Firing Squad | Whilst abolished under the First Republic, capital punishment was reintroduced during the first Puli dictatorship, with the practice of crucifixion being a notable new addition. Whilst the practice was initially only used sporadically, the recent civil war has seen a heavy increase in the number of executions. |
Retentionist | Ashihara | 2019 | Unknown | n/a | Firing Squad | Capital punishment is constitutionally limited to be the sentence for treason, sedition, rape, murder, espionage and imperialist collaboration. The Ashiharan government does not report the number of executions, and the closed nature of the country makes accurate estimates extremely hard to come by. |
Retentionist | File:Flag of Biladia.png Biladia | 2018 | 175 | n/a | Firing Squad, Hanging, (until the mid 20th century sometimes Stoning) | Capital punishment still is present in the Biladian law for both certain offenses in military and amongst civilians.

Abolitionist | Goulong | 2001 | n/a | 2001 | Firing Squad, lethal injection | Capital punishment was legal up until 2001 when the process was ruled unconstitutional by the High Court, as it violated Section I of the Goulongese Constitution, which grants citizens the "right to life". |
Abolitionist | Template:Country data Hipasia | 2017 | 7 | n/a | Hanging, firing squad | Capital punishment is primarily used for multiple murders, either as an act of terrorism or in conjunction with other crimes.
