Ardalia | Antiquity | X | Abolished Y | The death penalty is permitted by the Ardalian Constitution and remains prescribed by the criminal code of the Republic for various delicts, namely treason, espionage, murder, rape and piracy, and by military law for desertion, cowardice and mutiny. The last executions occurred in 2002 when a total of 45 were carried out upon the leadership and high-ranking military officers of the now-banned Nationalist Front for causing the Ardalian Civil War and their responsibility for the deaths of tens of thousands of innocent civilians during the conflict.
