Women and by extension women's issues and reproductive rights are historically prioritized in Charnean tribal society, in which women are more politically influential than men. Fundamental rights to abortion are traditional and predate written legal permissions, and additional abortion rights have been further expanded by successive governments of the Confederation. | |||||||

Abortion laws in Garima had varied by state until national legislation was passed in 1968 regulating abortion laws at the national level, recognizing the rights of women to receive an abortion in the events of endangerment to the life of the woman, physical or mental ailments, pregnancy as a result of rape or fetal defects. The states retained the right to allow abortions in other circumstances, including but not limited to socio-economic factors and abortion on-demand, with varying limitations during fetal development. | |||||||

Abortion in Garza is legal at the national level provided the pregnancy poses great danger to the life of the woman, if the pregnancy is a result of rape or if the fetus is non-viable. The provinces reserve the right to allow additional reasons based upon physical and mental health of the mother. The 1980 Abortion Act remains controversial to this day and a polarizing political issue in Garza. | |||||||

Abortion in Ghant is banned except in the following three circumstances. 1. When the woman's life or health is endangered by the continuation of pregnancy, 2. When the pregnancy is a result of a criminal act, or 3. When the fetus is seriously malformed. One common loophole is that natural abortifacients are not illegal, so most women can use them without facing criminal charges. | |||||||

Abortion in Lihnidos is legal only in extreme circumstances. Abortions can only legally be preformed if the life of the mother is in danger or if the pregnancy was a result of rape. Abortions for fetal defects had been legalized by a Democratic Coalition government in 1980 but was made illegal by a Conservative-National government in 1987. If a woman currently wishes to get an abortion she must be within the first twenty weeks of the pregnancy and is required to go through mandatory counseling. Abortion remains a sensitive topic in Lihnidos. | |||||||

Abortion legislation varied by state until 1983 when it was legalised on a federal level. Between 1987 and 1989, limitations were placed on abortion, eventually restricting it only to cases of rape. In 2006, the new liberal government began relaxing restrictions on abortion. In 2015 a bill was introduced in parliament that would have reintroduced a number of restrictions; another bill introduced in that same session would have also prohibited abortion without the consent of the biological father. Both bills were defeated. Abortion remains a controversial topic in Lyncanestria. | |||||||

While abortions have generally been accepted since pre-history in Mniohuta, it is generally considered taboo except in instances where it poses a danger to the mother or cases involving rape. Generally speaking, unless a mother doesn't particularly want to go through the process of having a child, issues such as socio-economic factors are not considered as raising a child is typically considered a communal effort and plenty of social institutions exist to support them without interfering with the mother's ability to work or a child's ability to undergo necessary socialization. | |||||||

When the New Foundation of Ottonia legally went into effect on January 1st of 1950, it included an entry in its bill of rights section that guaranteed the right to an abortion. In practice, it is fairly easy to get an abortion for any reason within the first two trimesters of pregnancy, but most doctors will not perform third trimester abortions except for medical necessity (the life of the prospective mother is in danger taking the pregnancy to term, or the fetus has become nonviable) or for pregnancies which are the result of a criminal act. The Republic of Ottonia had kept abortion to protect the life and health of a mother and in instances of rape legal until the Republican government was forced into exile in 1922, whereupon it was replaced by a royalist government which outlawed abortion in all circumstances. | |||||||

Abortion in Orun Redisus is mostly permitted. There are a few cultural caveats that make its laws unique among developed nations due to its cultural history of a strong family unit. Redisan law permits abortion, however, in cases where the mother's life is not in danger, rape, and fetal defects, that the father of the child plays a role in determining if the child is carried through to the full term. In these cases, a father may request custody of the child when it is born. In these cases, a mother and father may sign a legal binding document rewarding custody of the child to the father and allowing the mother to relinquish legal custody and responsiblity. | |||||||

Erobran Henrik II legalized abortion to protect the life and physical health of a prospective mother, as well as in instances of rape or severe fetal defect in 1954. However, the rape allowance was overturned by his successor, Wyllem I. It was restored in 1991 by Robyrt I. Prior to the Ottonian Revolution, the royalist government of Ottonia had criminalized abortion under all circumstances upon coming to power in 1918. | |||||||

All abortion was illegal in Sydalon until 2015, when it was legalized to protect a woman's life or threat of physical health. Nonetheless it is still a contentious topic with regular National Assembly bills attempting to legalize abortion in other situations. | |||||||

The customary law of the Kel Aman and Kel Hadar groups provided the right for women terminate pregnancies in many instances. The Supreme Consensus of Talahara codified those protections in Talaharan law, but in many instances women were still legally forced to carry certain pregnancies to term. Reforms in the early 20th century that abolished capital punishment also led to the decriminalization of actions associated with abortion in any circumstances under principles of bodily autonomy. | |||||||

Abortion has been traditionally practiced by Tyrian peoples in cases regarding maternal and/or fetal health, rape and incest since ancient times. The practice was outlawed under Latin rule and subsequent Coptic Nazarist city-states, but continued widely regardless of legality for centuries. Under the unified Tyreseian government, the practice was gradually expanded legally, with updated definitions and broader categories, until a 1983 national plebiscite abolished all prohibitions on abortion and legalized abortions on demand. | |||||||

Prior to 1972 abortion was only lightly regulated although it was taboo in many regions of Uluujol and was in practice harshly restricted by local authorities. In 1972 Khagan Nikan V signed an imperial decree bringing all abortion laws and regulations in the Khaganate to a single standard, outlining the conditions under which abortions could and could not be performed, and proscribing hefty fines and even some light jail sentences for violations. | |||||||

Abortion was made legal in 1977 by a judgment from the Koshovyy Otaman under specific circumstances. For example, abortion for reasons of mental health requires that a pregnant person is in imminent danger to themself or others as a result of the pregnancy. In the time since legalization, several challenges have been made through the courts but have failed. Access to abortion is inconsistent between the Tovarystva, and for many women it remains inaccessible, regardless of the legality. At present, certain doctors have also been known to offer abortions to women who do not qualify legally and have thus far evaded prosecution in their local Tovarystva. |
