Capital punishment has occurred over much of Anteria in the past. However, in the past century, many countries in the region have abolished the practice. The following summarises the countries and conditions in which capital punishment is legal in Anteria.

  Capital punishment has been formally abolished by statute or constitution
  Capital punishment is only permitted for exceptional scenarios (such as crimes committed in wartime)
  Capital punishment is legal and is used for ordinary offences

Key Country Year implemented Year of last execution Year abolished Method(s) Notes
 Albithica 1860 1919 1920 Albithica's current Constitution, as well as all former Constitutions, have always expressly prohibited the death penalty, with the notable exception of the Imperial Republic's reversal of this stance.
 Aquariea Antiquity (Codified in 1933) 2017 NA Lethal Injection. If lethal injection is not available/inhumane, the criminal will be shot through the crown of the cranial cavity first. A second shot will be given through the mouth, aimed through the cerebellum to ensure death. Measures are made to prevent facial destruction/deformity so the body may be buried by family. Capital Punishment was never addressed in the 1933 Constitution nor has any traction really gained to make it illegal. Capital Punishment is used for extraordinary crimes and thus, not used frequently. Some examples include murder, terrorism, espionage, rape, etc. For a capital punishment to be granted by a court, there must be direct, foolproof evidence of the crime (ie genetic evidence of location at the scene, hard drive with pictures, etc.) Otherwise, it is a life sentence.
 Aziallis Properly addressed in the Skaje legal code from 1674. Put into the Azillain Penal Code in brought into force in 1762. 1972 1971 None The Azillian Penal Code which was also accepted with amendments after the formation of the Union was drawn majorly from the Skaje Legal Code. The Death Penalty was allowed for a variety of serious offenses and could only be delivered by a Judge of a Court The Azillian Penal Code gives the Courts the right to decide whether crimes committed by a certain individual deserve death penalty.

Till before 1997, the ruling Monarch had the Priviledge to give a "Pardon from Death" to an individual given a death sentence who'd ask for mercy. But the Supreme Court ruled this Privilege null and void on grounds of violation of Judicial Independence and also observing that Courts had been recommending Solitary Confinement as the "next GoTo punishment" which was 'unnecessarily harsh and the cost incurred by the State was more than the spite for vengeance and worth of the said individual's life'.

Since 1969, the Capital Punishment (techniques and aftermath) Revision Act, in accordance with the recommendations of the Dasneig Committee, has made it mandatory for all individuals on death row to be killed by a lethal dose of an Opioid and the healthy organs of the said individuals are used for transplants while organs which cannot be used for transplants are sent off to Medical Schools for research and teaching purposes.

Flag of Germany.svg Axmanie Since October 8, 1862 May,2019 N/A Electric chair, firearm shot in the head or lethal injection, at the criminal's discretion. Capital Punishment is legalized and used for serious offences in Axmanie. These include premeditated murder, participation in a terrorist attack, mass murder, genocide, war crimes, high treason, raping a underage person and pedophilia. Capital punishment has been coded in law in Axmanie, since 1862 and the enactment of the Bundesstrafgesetz (Federal Criminal act). This act also included "monarchical propaganda" as motive for execution, but it was repelled in 1900. Landers may or may not execute criminals depending of their own constitution and laws. All Axmaniean landers except Neu Deutschland allow capital punishment for various crimes which are established by them trough their own legislations.
 Bendan Antiquity 1989 1990 Capital punishment has been abolished after the Great Revolution, as it was seen as a remnant of the totalitarian regime.

 Gabrielland Antiquity 1913 1927 Shortly after independence from Astariax, the death penalty was abolished. For really serious offences, a life sentence may be given out.
Template:Country data Ghijuko Since Foundation 2015 N/A Capital Punishment is only allowed in cases of Pedophilia or Hephebophilia, and in excepcional cases for genocide or War crimes
 Hatstheput Since Foundation 2017 N/A Electric chair or lethal injection, at the criminal's discretion. Capital Punishment is legalized and used for ordinary offences in Hatstheput, but only applied for serious offences. These include premeditated murder, participation in a terrorist attack, mass murder, genocide, war crimes, high treason, mass raping and pedophilia. Capital punishment has been enforced in the modern state of Hatstheput since its foundation after the Hatstheputian Civil War. Its application was vetoed several times during Hatstheputian history by progressive members of the Liberal Party. Since its instauration, 322 criminals have been executed.
 Hyrtexia 1663-1833, 1947-1956, 2017-present 2018 N/A Executions come in the form of public hangings for war criminals and those who commit high treason, but lethal injection and the electric chair are also methods of execution used in certain states. States have the ability to choose forms of execution through voting. Hyrtexia always gives the death penalty in the event of homicide, rape, paedophilia, child pornography possession or production, war crimes, treason, theft in excess of 10 million geltes, attempted murder, and prostitution without consent.
 Kilowatt Antiquity 2009 2012 Capital punishment in Kilowatt was abolished following a referendum in 2012
 Neuewland Antiquity 2018 N/A Execution by shooting Capital Punishment is legalized and is used for a multitude of offences in Neuewland. It can be used for mass murder (which in Neuew law is the killing of 10 or more people), serial rape, pedophilia, treason, attempted coup, and war crimes. Single-shot execution is used for normal criminals, while firing squad is used for military executions.
 Paslin Never Never Since colonization N/A Capital punishment never has or will be used for crimes. Sentences in prison and rehabilitation are used instead.
 Prybourne 1890 2015 n/a Should capital punishment become necessary (such as for going on strike), the preferred method is defenestration from the top of the Tower of Commerce. Not only is the forty-story descent effective, but it allows those in the Sacred Marketplace below opportunities to place wagers on where the condemned will land. Capital punishment is sanctioned in Prybourne for certain federal and military crimes, and used in 7 states. While there are 7 states which include capital punishment within their sentencing statutes, some states (such as Newley and Wildespell) have yet to execute anyone since 1976, as demonstrated by the lack of any executions by these states out of the 1317 total executions which have taken place as of December 5, 2015. No executions took place from 1967 to 1977, owing in part to a Prybourne Supreme Court ruling striking down arbitrary imposition of the death penalty. In 1976, that Court ruled that, under appropriate circumstances, capital punishment may constitutionally be imposed; since the decision there have been more than 1,300 executions, a majority of these taking place in three states: Woodland , Bydale, and Bysummer. Five state legislatures in the modern era have abolished the death penalty, though two of those laws (in Morwall and Limwick) were not retroactive. Additionally, state courts in Vertcoast and Springlea struck down death penalty statutes and their legislatures took no action in response.
 Sacrofnia antiquity 2018 N/A Execution by shooting, hanging or by chemists The Sacrofnian justice considers that when a person commits a crime that deserves to be condemned to death, it loses its value as a human being and may end up with a future far worse than death, such as being a test subject of the many laboratories of Sacrofnia.
 Velnotia 1040 n/a n/a Velnotia uses the death penalty to punish criminals of the most serious offenses (i.e., Murder, Treason.).
Viha 859365.png Viha 2016 2017 N/A Viha executes all the people who are involved in all illegal actions.
 Weissmark Since Foundation 2017 N/A Lethal injection, electrouction TBA
 Wolfgalia 1833 1928 1929 Wolfgalia does not implement the death penalty as it was determined as fundamentally opposing Galea culture and beliefs by the Wolfgalian government in the year 1928, but the nation does send criminals with the most extreme offenses (i.e. Homicide, Acts of Terrorism, Rape) to other nations with which the government has come to agreements (Neuewland, Hyrtexia) for interned and unpaid work for life.
