Cannabis and many other drugs are fully legal and traditionally consumed in Charnea. Unusually, Alcahol is relatively restricted and although now largely legal, its use is considered taboo. Newer and more powerful drugs are typically seen as "foreign poisons" are are shunned by wider society and outlawed by the government. A significant amount of the worldwide supply of these and other drugs however originates with the Syndicate, a powerful organized crime group based in Charnea which operates relatively unchallenged by the authorities.

Drugs, both recreational and medicinal, are regulated by the Royal Council of Medicine (RCM). The RCM can pass Council Decrees that, excepting Royal Decrees or Assembly Legislation, can legalize or illegalize any substances under its jurisdiction. Such Council Decrees have authorized the use of all the above drugs, with the exception of Alcohol and Opioids which retain legal status by the 1822 Opium and Spirits Act. While Cocaine is legalized and regulated, Crack Cocaine is illegal by RCM Decree.

Ghant is very liberal when it comes to drug policy. Drugs are, and always have been legal to sell, possess, manufacture and consume, as a result of tolerant cultural views towards recreational drug use. Drug abuse is dealt with by administrative and medical intervention. Drugs are taxed in Ghant through Sin tax. Nevertheless, there is rampant smuggling and a thriving black market for tobacco, cannabis and other drugs, where the drugs are smuggled into neighboring and allied states which have made them illegal.

Drug laws in Latium are among some of the most strict in Ajax, and are regulated by the Illegal Substances Act of 1911 (amd. 1954;1991;2010;2014). Future drug laws may be altered by further amendments to the ISA, new Act of the Senate, or Imperial decree. Cannabis is legal for medical purposes, though is strictly regulated by requiring documentation from a SMH physician with dispensing of the drug only available at select SMH national hospitals.

Drug use in Mniohuta extends into antiquity, especially peyote which is considered an integral part of an adulting ceremony and is irregularly used by shamans. Drug use has been decriminalised since the writing of the 3rd edition of the Mniohutan legal code, with needle sharing programs and the like being a common feature to get addicts off of drugs.

Drug use or possession for almost all drugs in North Ottonia is legal or decriminalized. That said, many drugs that are designated as "decriminalized" are subject to confiscation if they are found by law enforcement in the possession of a person who lacks a doctor's perscription. Drug addiction in the FOR is treated as a public health issue rather than a criminal offense, which informs the general lack of legal penalties for possession and use. However, production and sale of certain drugs, especially PCP, MDMA, LSD, cocaine and its derivatives, opioids, and ketamine, are strictly controlled and require permits and regular inspections, and can only be sold through government-administered pharmacies and dispensaries.

Drug laws are fairly strict in South Ottonia; although marijuana was legalized for medicinal purposes in 2004 and is fairly easy to procure legally, most drugs beyond alcohol and nicotine are either illegal, or are strictly-controlled for medicinal purposes.

Tyreseia decriminalized the possession and consumption of all substances in a gradual two-phase process between 1971 and 1982, and from 1994 to 2001. The first phase saw the simultaneous crackdown on selling and manufacturing many substances including methamphetamine, heroin and other opioids, alongside the construction of clinics and government monopolies on said drugs under the control of the People's Commissariat of Health and Safe Conduct. With the failure of the first phase to adequately address the problem of illegally-sourced substances, the second phase of drug policy saw the outsourcing of many of the injection and distribution clinic costs to local governments to save costs, while possession and use of dangerous substances was strictly legalized. Several drugs, such as psylocibin, cannabis, tobacco and alcohol have never been illegal in Tyreseia, with the former having never been mentioned in statutory law until the 1990s. The latter three are considered culturally "acceptable" to consume, with each having prominent roles in Tyreseian history for centuries. For many hallucinogenics, some local governments have controversially set up "trip-sitting" centers to ensure that first-timers avoid unpleasant experiences while under the influence. Consumption of substances like heroin and meth must be done at a government clinic, where doses of the drug and of a weaker alternative are distributed in order to wean addicts off of the substance.
