Key	Country	Year implemented	Year of last execution	Year abolished	Method(s)	Notes
	Agarntrop	Antiquity	1998	N/A	Firing Squad, Lethal Injection or Electrocution at the criminal's discretion.	Whilst the death penalty was abolished federally and by the Agarn military in 1981, the province of Tierra Naranja still maintains it in statute as an option for 1st degree murder despite not having executed anyone since 1998. It was abolished in 1967 in Tierra Árida and Groot Vikun, 1968 in Agarntrop del Este and Agarntrop del Norte, 1970 in Agarntrop del Oeste, 1975 in Agarntrop del Sur, 1980 in Davdankona, 1990 in Agarntrop Central and 2009 in Tierra de Gris
	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.
	Astariax	Antiquity	2017	N/A		Astariax almost always gives the death penalty in the event of homicide, child pornography and pedophilia charges, rape, terrorism, and treason against the state.
	Aziallis	Properly addressed in the Skaje legal code from 1674. Reserved for only henious offenses by the Uraazilaana Code. Formally drafted into the Azillain Penal Code in 1911.	2016	N/A	A lethal dose of a high concentration Opioid cocktail is given, to supress the nerves to the extent of death. Sarlaxone and Nelaxone can also be administered to prevent the "heavenly" feel-good feelings induced by the opiods. Nerve supressants like Gabapentine and some Anti-Sympathetic agents, which are cheaper and more effective, are often used these days.	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 Priviledge4 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.
	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.

	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.
