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.
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.

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 Marensoald Batisuria 2018 76 n/a Guillotine, Firing Squad Capital punishment in Marensoald is reserved for cases of violent or repeat sexual crimes, homicide, and treason. The status of Capital Punishment has become contentious in recent years, especially in the Union of Matav, as the act of execution outside of war is seen as a mortal sin by many adherents of Mashahism in the nation.
Retentionist  Brilliania 2018 7 n/a Firing squad Capital punishment is legal according to the Brillian constitution. It is used for cases of murder and violent sexual misconduct, although the constitution states it may also be used for drug trafficking or treason.
