FROM ROBERTA KELLY, CHAIR OF THE TRAVEL AND TOURISM COMMISSION, NEW FRENCO EMPIRE
Signing Address - Office of State, Hightower Plaza, New Rome, NFE
Encryption Type - Survey/Index
Directive Code - Type 5 "Formal Multiversal GA"


Greetings!

In an attempt to draw in more tourists to the Empire, I have completed the attached survey. I submit it in hopes that that tourists (LGBT or not) across the multiverse will visit our supercities! There is charm to be found in all thirteen mostly in Atlantica, though, after all!

Official Information
Name of person/organisation taking questionnaire:
Imperial Travel and Tourism Commission
Name of nation:
The New Frenco Empire
Form of government:
Autocratic Meritocratic Technocracy
Population:
>462,000,000 (domestic)
>1,000,000,000 (colonial)
Tech level of nation:
Late-PMT
How prevalent is tourism in your nation?
It's considered the "go to" nation for letting your hidden hedonistic nature out in one epic week from Singapore to Lisbon! So, quite.

Anti-discrimination legislation
1a) Are there any anti-discrimination laws that apply for all minorities?
Not exactly. Although, should a significant amount of the populace succumb to the barbarism that is discrimination, the government probably wouldn't hesitate to put something into action.
b) Are there any anti-discrimination laws applying specifically for LGBT minorities?
No, but see above for details.
c) How extensive do such anti-discrimination laws go?
Above. However, should any anti-discrimination legislation go into action, it probably wouldn't be pretty for the offenders...
d) Do such laws apply to tourists?
Again, we have no legislation. If anything, tourists might get treated better since they tend to spend more.

Marriage/Partnership
1. Status of civil unions in your country:
You can shack up with whoever you'd like to. That's the extent of it.
2. Status of gay marriage in your country:
Marriages of any kind are not recognized in the Empire, as they are considered an old-world relic of superstition. However, since this isn't the case abroad, tourism-heavy areas will often accommodate visiting married couples, regardless if it's same-sex or not.

Adoption Status
1a) Are homosexual couples able to adopt children?
No one is able to adopt children. Straight or gay. All children are wards of the state.
b) Are there any conditions for homosexual couples to adopt?
N/A
c) Do such laws apply to tourists?
Again, children are seen as a precious resource over here. The government spends millions to ensure every child is grown under controlled conditions by certified professionals. Despite this, while the Empire might not be the best place to bring a child who grew up in more "traditional" surroundings, we won't abduct the children of tourists.

LGBT-Marketing
Does your country's travel companies market towards LGBT tourists?
We've often advertised in a manner displaying our rather hedonistic culture. One particular instance (sponsored by the Sodom and Gomorrah Pleasure Service Corporation) was a magazine advertisement (banned in a number of countries) that showcased a man and a woman in bed with under the tagline "let loose". Then, the bottom part of it showed the same man and woman in bed again...however, this time, they were joined by another male-female pair, with the former spooning the man and the latter spooning the woman. This was headed by the tagline "and we really mean that!"

Equal Age of Consent
1. Age of consent for sex for heterosexual couples:
Puberty.
2. Age of consent for sex for homosexual couples:
Puberty.
3. Is the age of consent different for tourists?
Nope.

Religious influence
1a) Is there a state religion in your country?
Not officially, but the Pantheon may count depending on your worldview. Of course, calling it a "religion" is a stretch...
b)(i) Does the state religion condemn acts of homosexuality?
No. If anything, it's one of the few "religions" to actually address LGBT people in a positive light.
(ii) If so, does a majority of the population follow this religion?
A large minority actively practice it.
2. If so, does the state religion influence the government's decision on legislation regarding LGBT minorities?
We decided on a strict pro-LGBT policy long before the Pantheon existed.

HIV-travel restrictions
1. Are citizens infected with HIV/AIDS allowed to travel beyond the country's borders?
No...that's only because they need to purge the disease from their body ASAP.
2. Are foreigners infected with HIV/AIDS allowed to travel into the country's borders?
If any foreigners come into the country with a contagious disease, we ask that they locate the closest healthcare facility to clean themselves of it via nanopurge. Shouldn't take longer than ten minutes or so.
3. Are offenders who travel in or out of the country punishiable by anything more than deportation under the law?
If they keep refusing treatment, we may use force to detain and treat them.

Anti-gay laws
1a) Are there laws that discriminate against minorities as a whole?
No.
b) Are there laws that discriminate LGBT minorities specifically?
No.
c) How extensive do such discriminatory laws go?
N/A
d) Do such laws apply to tourists?
N/A

Homosexuality illegal
1a) Is committing sexual activities with a person of the same sex criminalised under the law?
No.
b) Are offenders of the law punished by a jail term beyond 10 years, execution, torture, et cetera?
No.
c) Do such laws apply to tourists?
N/A

Pride banned
1a) Are LGBT pride parades illegal in your country?
I suppose if you can get a permit for such things, it's legal. Such a thing is completely useless in a society like ours, but...eh.
b) If not, are such pride parades common in your country?
See above.

Locals hostile
1. What is the percentage of the population that believes homosexuality should not be accepted by society?
<1%
2. Are LGBT related activities welcomed or shunned by society in general?
Encouraged and seen as perfectly natural.

Persecution
1a) Have there been reported acts of persecution committed against LGBT minorities by the locals?
The last reports of something like this date from the 2080s (it's 2150 now), when New Roman locals staged a "God hates fags" demonstration in front of the Imperial Tower.
b) Are such acts glorified by the local media?
No. In fact, back then, the media (almost literally) called for the persecutors heads' on a silver platter. We didn't do anything that drastic. We just...reeducated them...

Murders
1a) Have there been reported murders of those who are part of LGBT minorities committed by the locals?
Most Imperials fall under the "bisexual" category. Hence, most murders do involve an LGBT person. However, this is mostly due to gang warfare, terrorist acts or negligent manslaughter. Very rarely is someone killed for their sexuality or gender.
b) Are such acts glorified by the local media?
One could argue that violence is glorified by the Imperial media, but specific anti-LGBT violence wouldn't sit well with most.

Death sentences
1a) Have there been reported executions targeted specifically at a person for committing activities related to the LGBT community/homosexual acts?
No.
b) Are such executions glorified by the local media?
No.

Miscellaneous
Country's Estimated Number of Gay Gathering Places per 100,000 homosexual tourists:
None. Primarily because most establishments like this reflect the majority, making them de jure bisexual.
Are there any questions regarding this questionnaire? If so, please tell us what questions you may have:
The Empire is socially leaps and bounds ahead of most NS nations. While at first glance, it may seem that some categories are unfriendly towards homosexuals (such as marriage or "gay bars"), this isn't the case, as the Frenkish hedonistic culture encouraged by the government, as a happy populace is a complacent one is a highly sexualized one that embraces standard bisexuality.

Signed,

Roberta Kelly, Chair of the Imperial Travel and Tourism Commission and Common Councillor (first representative - Atlantica, Paradise District)
NEW FRENCO EMPIRE

Transferring information from disorganized notes into presentable factbooks is way too time consuming for a procrastinator. Just ask if you have questions.
Plutocratic Evil Empire™ situated in a post-apocalyptic Decopunk North America. Extreme PMT, yet socially stuck in the interwar/immediate post-war era, with Jazz music and flapper culture alongside nanotechnology and Martian colonies. Tier I power of the Frencoverse.

2. Are LGBT related activities welcomed or shunned by society in general? Welcomed in the core provinces.

b) Are such acts glorified by the local media? No.

Murders
1a) Have there been reported murders of those who are part of LGBT minorities committed by the locals?

Thank you for taking the questionnaire. Your answers have been computed and we have your results.

Your nation's final assessment on the LTI is Fabulous, at 11 points.

With regards to the revision of questions within the questionnaire, while it is the understanding of the Kitacho Institute that concepts like a state religion condemning homosexuality and the criminalisation of such acts may be foreign on both of our ends, the questionnaire is also being answered by a more diverse group of nations that may hold such a stupid concept to heart. Therefore, the questionnaire is made in an attempt to reflect the points of view of most every nation possible.

Any queries regarding the scoring may be addressed to the Kitacho Institute via intergalactic telegram.

Name of nation: The Empire of Victorious Decepticons
Form of government: Military Dictatorship
Population: 12.8 Billion
Tech level of nation: FT, we're a space empire of sapient robots
How prevalent is tourism in your nation? Extremely Rare

Anti-discrimination legislation
1a) Are there any anti-discrimination laws that apply for all minorities? Only one: It is illegal to discriminate against any Decepticon with an alternate body plan, so long as that plan meets the Minimum Design Specifications of the Decepticon Body
b) Are there any anti-discrimination laws applying specifically for LGBT minorities? No
c) How extensive do such anti-discrimination laws go? There aren't any
d) Do such laws apply to tourists? N/A

Marriage/Partnership
1. Status of civil unions in your country: Extremely rare, but legal
2. Status of gay marriage in your country: No form of marriage or civil union is recognized by the State, but feel free to cohabit if you want. We really don't care.

Adoption Status
1a) Are homosexual couples able to adopt children? We discourage adoption by couples of any sort. Raising by committee works badly, just like coding by committee.
b) Are there any conditions for homosexual couples to adopt? *Anyone* who wants to adopt must certify that the offspring will be raised to follow the Decepticon Way. The adopter must also be a Decepticon citizen.
c) Do such laws apply to tourists? Tourists are not allowed to adopt. Decepticon offspring must be raised by Decepticons!

LGBT-Marketing
Does your country's travel companies market towards LGBT tourists? Any travel company that does not market a visit here as danger tourism is covering up material facts. That said, yeah, Decepticon tourism companies will say all sorts of BS to get suckers to buy in.

Equal Age of Consent
1. Age of consent for sex for heterosexual couples: If you can pass the sapience test, you're an adult regardless of physical age
2. Age of consent for sex for homosexual couples: Same as above
3. Is the age of consent different for tourists? In practice, there is no such concept for tourists, though officially, the same rules apply as for Decepticons.

Religious influence
1a) Is there a state religion in your country? Yes
b)(i) Does the state religion condemn acts of homosexuality? No, in fact, we doubt Divine Leader Megatron gave sexuality of any kind even the slightest bit of thought.
(ii) If so, does a majority of the population follow this religion? N/A
2. If so, does the state religion influence the government's decision on legislation regarding LGBT minorities? N/A

HIV-travel restrictions
1. Are citizens infected with HIV/AIDS allowed to travel beyond the country's borders? Robots can't get infected with any kind of biological disease, so there aren't any citizens with this bio-hack-program running.
2. Are foreigners infected with HIV/AIDS allowed to travel into the country's borders? Sure - we're robots, so it's not like we're going to catch it! Our human livestock is also DNA-patched to be immune to this, so our mines won't be at risk either.
3. Are offenders who travel in or out of the country punishable by anything more than deportation under the law? It's not illegal, so there are no offenders.

Anti-gay laws
1a) Are there laws that discriminate against minorities as a whole? Yes. Humans have the legal status of slaves, and we don't really care if other biologicals get thrown into the mines along with them.
b) Are there laws that discriminate LGBT minorities specifically? No.
c) How extensive do such discriminatory laws go? Biologicals have no rights whatsoever, and someone may even step on one for the lulz as long as nobody else owns it.
d) Do such laws apply to tourists? Yes, so tourists are well-advised to bring along heavy weaponry to discourage opportunistic bots who'll try to capture them and sell them into the mining system.

Homosexuality illegal
1a) Is committing sexual activities with a person of the same sex criminalised under the law? No.
b) Are offenders of the law punished by a jail term beyond 10 years, execution, torture, et cetera? Not illegal
c) Do such laws apply to tourists? Not illegal

Pride banned
1a) Are LGBT pride parades illegal in your country? Yes, because ALL forms of political pressure/protest are illegal, and they fall into this category.
b) If not, are such pride parades common in your country?

Locals hostile
1. What is the percentage of the population that believes homosexuality should not be accepted by society? 0.0001% or less. Who really cares about what biologicals do~?
2. Are LGBT related activities welcomed or shunned by society in general? Society in general knows almost nothing about sexuality and doesn't consider it one way or the other. If you ask the average bot on the street, he'd say, "Sex? Isn't that something biologicals do?"

Persecution
1a) Have there been reported acts of persecution committed against LGBT minorities by the locals? No
b) Are such acts glorified by the local media? No. It wouldn't even make the news.

Murders
1a) Have there been reported murders of those who are part of LGBT minorities committed by the locals? We suppose that some of the millions of people who get pasted here every year were formerly-human LGBTs, but nobody really keeps track of that.
b) Are such acts glorified by the local media? Only glorious and intense Decepticon-vs-Decepticon battles get glorified by the media. The reasons behind the fighting are usually glossed over because everyone just wants to see the rad battle footage!

Death sentences
1a) Have there been reported executions targeted specifically at a person for committing activities related to the LGBT community/homosexual acts? No.
b) Are such executions glorified by the local media? N/A

Miscellaneous*
Country's Estimated Number of Gay Gathering Places per 100,000 homosexual tourists: There aren't 100,000 tourists, period! So, 0; there's not enough demand for any kind of tourist gathering places. Also, if we were you, we'd really watch it if a Decepticon business tried to get a bunch of humans to gather in one spot in our territory under any pretense. But you'd be welcome to fall for it visit en masse, regardless of your orientation.
Are there any questions regarding this questionnaire? If so, please tell us what questions you may have: What is it with you biologicals and sex, anyway?!?! You all need to go to Debugging for a recoding of your Priorities Routines.

Sadakoyama wrote:
Official Information
Name of person/organisation taking questionnaire: Piscivore, duly authorized representative empowered by and on behalf of the Council of Sciencemasters of The North Pacific nation of Sadakoyama.
Name of nation: Sadakoyama
Form of government: Sociocratic Parliamentary Republic
Population: ~45 Million (4.45B NS)
Tech level of nation: Early PMT
How prevalent is tourism in your nation? "Tourists outnumber citizens two to one." It is our primary industry.

Anti-discrimination legislation
1a) Are there any anti-discrimination laws that apply for all minorities? Yes. They are written into our constitution.
b) Are there any anti-discrimination laws applying specifically for LGBT minorities? Yes. They are written into our constitution.
c) How extensive do such anti-discrimination laws go? They are fundamental to our basic social structure.
d) Do such laws apply to tourists? Yes.

Marriage/Partnership
1. Status of civil unions in your country: The government of Sadakoyama does not involve itself in the romantic affairs or religious beliefs of its citizens. There are no tax implications to pair bonding and healthcare is fully socialized. Any commitments people make to each other is the business of themselves, their karass ("extended family"), potential partners, and their friends.
2. Status of gay marriage in your country: Legal, but irrelevant.

Adoption Status
1a) Are homosexual couples able to adopt children? Yes.
b) Are there any conditions for homosexual couples to adopt? The same as for anyone.
c) Do such laws apply to tourists? We do not allow out-of-towners to adopt our children. Sadakhan social structure is organized around an "extended family" unit, not necessarily based on kinship, called a karass. Adoptions and fostering within and between these units is very common. There is always someone willing and able to care for a child.

LGBT-Marketing
Does your country's travel companies market towards LGBT tourists? If it is appropriate and legal within their home nation. If they've got good STEM skills we're more likely to persuade them to immigrate here.

Equal Age of Consent
1. Age of consent for sex for heterosexual couples:
2. Age of consent for sex for homosexual couples:
Because people are different and develop at different rates, consent (like other aspects of maturity) is not tied to a specific age in Sadakoyama. Being legally recognized as an adult, including sexual consent, involves passing the strict high school examination, which includes not only academic achievement but a doctor and a psychologist certifying the individual meets physical, emotional, and psychological maturity benchmarks. This is all done under the aegis of the Department of Education. This has occurred for some as young as twelve but is commonly accomplished between 14-16. Gender identity and sexual preferences do not factor into this determination.

3. Is the age of consent different for tourists?
Sadakhan law and culture is intolerant of sex tourism. In order to avoid international incidents or legal complications and to prevent out-of-towners without an appropriate level of emotional maturity and/or psychological stability from trying to take advantage of our comparatively accelerated maturation, Sadakhan law holds tourists to the age of consent in their country of origin.

Religious influence
1a) Is there a state religion in your country? No. Religion is tolerated but not widely practiced. Believers are generally viewed as having an amusing personality quirk, similar to being overly fond of a television program or video game system.
b)(i) Does the state religion condemn acts of homosexuality? N/A
(ii) If so, does a majority of the population follow this religion? N/A
2. If so, does the state religion influence the government's decision on legislation regarding LGBT minorities? N/A

HIV-travel restrictions
1. Are citizens infected with HIV/AIDS allowed to travel beyond the country's borders? Yes, provided they are cured first.
2. Are foreigners infected with HIV/AIDS allowed to travel into the country's borders? Yes. Medical tourism is significant in Sadakoyama.
3. Are offenders who travel in or out of the country punishable by anything more than deportation under the law? If someone arrives infected, they will be held until they consent to treatment.

Anti-gay laws
1a) Are there laws that discriminate against minorities as a whole? No.
b) Are there laws that discriminate LGBT minorities specifically? No.
c) How extensive do such discriminatory laws go? N/A
d) Do such laws apply to tourists? N/A

Homosexuality illegal
1a) Is committing sexual activities with a person of the same sex criminalised under the law? No.
b) Are offenders of the law punished by a jail term beyond 10 years, execution, torture, et cetera? N/A
c) Do such laws apply to tourists? N/A

Pride banned
1a) Are LGBT pride parades illegal in your country? No.
b) If not, are such pride parades common in your country? Not really; but then parades in general aren't that much of a thing here.

Locals hostile
1. What is the percentage of the population that believes homosexuality should not be accepted by society? Below statistical significance. Anyone who feels like this usually just emigrates.
2. Are LGBT related activities welcomed or shunned by society in general? What constitutes an "LGBT related activity"?

Persecution
1a) Have there been reported acts of persecution committed against LGBT minorities by the locals? I've never seen or heard of one. Maybe? I don't read every single news item. I don't have the data to back up a definite claim there hasn't ever been, but I'd be really surprised.
b) Are such acts glorified by the local media? Certainly not.

Murders
1a) Have there been reported murders of those who are part of LGBT minorities committed by the locals? Not because of their gender status or sexual orientation, that I am aware. Most of what the world calls "murder" that occurs in Sadakoyama is the result of duelling, which is legal here (but rare). It is possible that someone may have at sometime engineered a duel because of someone else's gender status or orientation. If so, they used a pretext so it would be impossible to say for certain. Sadakoyama has extensive psychological and counselling services available as part of its free health care system, though, so a person that felt that strongly prejudiced would be able to get some help or just leave before it came to that.
b) Are such acts glorified by the local media? No.

Death sentences
1a) Have there been reported executions targeted specifically at a person for committing activities related to the LGBT community/homosexual acts? No.
b) Are such executions glorified by the local media? N/A

Miscellaneous*
Country's Estimated Number of Gay Gathering Places per 100,000 homosexual tourists: What is a "Gay Gathering Place"? LGBT persons just go to the same places everyone else does. I guess where ever they decide to meet up is the "Gay Gathering Place". I wouldn't know how to count that.

OFFICIAL COMMUNIQUE OF KITACHO INSTITUTE

To: NPEC Department of Economics
From: Kitacho Institute

We apologise for a computational error in which the sheer volume of tourism was not taken into account. We have scolded the computer for its lack of cooperation and the computer has complied in issuing its formal apology, which is classified and near indecipherable by anyone but the top computer scientists in Pusatia. But let it be assured that they are sorry. So very, very sorry.

FROM ROBERTA KELLY, CHAIR OF THE TRAVEL AND TOURISM COMMISSION, NEW FRENCO EMPIRE
Signing Address - Office of State, Hightower Plaza, New Rome, NFE
Encryption Type - Survey/Index
Directive Code - Type 5 "Formal Multiversal GA"


Greetings!

In an attempt to draw in more tourists to the Empire, I have completed the attached survey. I submit it in hopes that that tourists (LGBT or not) across the multiverse will visit our supercities! There is charm to be found in all thirteen mostly in Atlantica, though, after all!

Official Information
Name of person/organisation taking questionnaire:
Imperial Travel and Tourism Commission
Name of nation:
The New Frenco Empire
Form of government:
Autocratic Meritocratic Technocracy
Population:
>462,000,000 (domestic)
>1,000,000,000 (colonial)
Tech level of nation:
Late-PMT
How prevalent is tourism in your nation?
It's considered the "go to" nation for letting your hidden hedonistic nature out in one epic week from Singapore to Lisbon! So, quite.

Anti-discrimination legislation
1a) Are there any anti-discrimination laws that apply for all minorities?
Not exactly. Although, should a significant amount of the populace succumb to the barbarism that is discrimination, the government probably wouldn't hesitate to put something into action.
b) Are there any anti-discrimination laws applying specifically for LGBT minorities?
No, but see above for details.
c) How extensive do such anti-discrimination laws go?
Above. However, should any anti-discrimination legislation go into action, it probably wouldn't be pretty for the offenders...
d) Do such laws apply to tourists?
Again, we have no legislation. If anything, tourists might get treated better since they tend to spend more.

Marriage/Partnership
1. Status of civil unions in your country:
You can shack up with whoever you'd like to. That's the extent of it.
2. Status of gay marriage in your country:
Marriages of any kind are not recognized in the Empire, as they are considered an old-world relic of superstition. However, since this isn't the case abroad, tourism-heavy areas will often accommodate visiting married couples, regardless if it's same-sex or not.

Adoption Status
1a) Are homosexual couples able to adopt children?
No one is able to adopt children. Straight or gay. All children are wards of the state.
b) Are there any conditions for homosexual couples to adopt?
N/A
c) Do such laws apply to tourists?
Again, children are seen as a precious resource over here. The government spends millions to ensure every child is grown under controlled conditions by certified professionals. Despite this, while the Empire might not be the best place to bring a child who grew up in more "traditional" surroundings, we won't abduct the children of tourists.

LGBT-Marketing
Does your country's travel companies market towards LGBT tourists?
We've often advertised in a manner displaying our rather hedonistic culture. One particular instance (sponsored by the Sodom and Gomorrah Pleasure Service Corporation) was a magazine advertisement (banned in a number of countries) that showcased a man and a woman in bed with under the tagline "let loose". Then, the bottom part of it showed the same man and woman in bed again...however, this time, they were joined by another male-female pair, with the former spooning the man and the latter spooning the woman. This was headed by the tagline "and we really mean that!"

Equal Age of Consent
1. Age of consent for sex for heterosexual couples:
Puberty.
2. Age of consent for sex for homosexual couples:
Puberty.
3. Is the age of consent different for tourists?
Nope.

Religious influence
1a) Is there a state religion in your country?
Not officially, but the Pantheon may count depending on your worldview. Of course, calling it a "religion" is a stretch...
b)(i) Does the state religion condemn acts of homosexuality?
No. If anything, it's one of the few "religions" to actually address LGBT people in a positive light.
(ii) If so, does a majority of the population follow this religion?
A large minority actively practice it.
2. If so, does the state religion influence the government's decision on legislation regarding LGBT minorities?
We decided on a strict pro-LGBT policy long before the Pantheon existed.

HIV-travel restrictions
1. Are citizens infected with HIV/AIDS allowed to travel beyond the country's borders?
No...that's only because they need to purge the disease from their body ASAP.
2. Are foreigners infected with HIV/AIDS allowed to travel into the country's borders?
If any foreigners come into the country with a contagious disease, we ask that they locate the closest healthcare facility to clean themselves of it via nanopurge. Shouldn't take longer than ten minutes or so.
3. Are offenders who travel in or out of the country punishiable by anything more than deportation under the law?
If they keep refusing treatment, we may use force to detain and treat them.

Anti-gay laws
1a) Are there laws that discriminate against minorities as a whole?
No.
b) Are there laws that discriminate LGBT minorities specifically?
No.
c) How extensive do such discriminatory laws go?
N/A
d) Do such laws apply to tourists?
N/A

Homosexuality illegal
1a) Is committing sexual activities with a person of the same sex criminalised under the law?
No.
b) Are offenders of the law punished by a jail term beyond 10 years, execution, torture, et cetera?
No.
c) Do such laws apply to tourists?
N/A

Pride banned
1a) Are LGBT pride parades illegal in your country?
I suppose if you can get a permit for such things, it's legal. Such a thing is completely useless in a society like ours, but...eh.
b) If not, are such pride parades common in your country?
See above.

Locals hostile
1. What is the percentage of the population that believes homosexuality should not be accepted by society?
<1%
2. Are LGBT related activities welcomed or shunned by society in general?
Encouraged and seen as perfectly natural.

Persecution
1a) Have there been reported acts of persecution committed against LGBT minorities by the locals?
The last reports of something like this date from the 2080s (it's 2150 now), when New Roman locals staged a "God hates fags" demonstration in front of the Imperial Tower.
b) Are such acts glorified by the local media?
No. In fact, back then, the media (almost literally) called for the persecutors heads' on a silver platter. We didn't do anything that drastic. We just...reeducated them...

Murders
1a) Have there been reported murders of those who are part of LGBT minorities committed by the locals?
Most Imperials fall under the "bisexual" category. Hence, most murders do involve an LGBT person. However, this is mostly due to gang warfare, terrorist acts or negligent manslaughter. Very rarely is someone killed for their sexuality or gender.
b) Are such acts glorified by the local media?
One could argue that violence is glorified by the Imperial media, but specific anti-LGBT violence wouldn't sit well with most.

Death sentences
1a) Have there been reported executions targeted specifically at a person for committing activities related to the LGBT community/homosexual acts?
No.
b) Are such executions glorified by the local media?
No.

Miscellaneous
Country's Estimated Number of Gay Gathering Places per 100,000 homosexual tourists:
None. Primarily because most establishments like this reflect the majority, making them de jure bisexual.
Are there any questions regarding this questionnaire? If so, please tell us what questions you may have:
The Empire is socially leaps and bounds ahead of most NS nations. While at first glance, it may seem that some categories are unfriendly towards homosexuals (such as marriage or "gay bars"), this isn't the case, as the Frenkish hedonistic culture encouraged by the government, as a happy populace is a complacent one is a highly sexualized one that embraces standard bisexuality.

Never, never be afraid to do what's right, especially if the well-being of a person is at stake. Society's punishments are small compared to the wounds we inflict on our soul when we look the other way.
We have nothing to lose but the world. We have our souls to gain.
You!
Me.
Nothing you can possibly do can make God love you any more or any less.
