I think it was punishable in some way back in the old days, when the empire was at its fullest. Now, though, it isn't, but who will burn the realm's flag? After the war and the Absurdly Catastrophic Ending people's not in the mood to do such a thing. Besides that, do they have national flags at their homes?

Flag burning is not illegal. However, it is disrespectful. Although it is disrespectful, when a person who did great things for Aroil dies and is cremated, it is respectful to wrap them in the Aroil flag before the cremation.

It’s illegal, but only if you are doing it for discrimination. Otherwise, it’s legal. There normally isn’t a very bad punishment for it, around a few hundred Katrs at best, and half a year in jail at worst.

National flag burning in Habianclazia is illegal, the punishment depends on which flag it is.

If it is the flag of a foreign country, the person who burned it will be prohibited to get closer than 100m to any embassy, will be prohibited to leave country for the rest of their life, will be prohibited to represent Habianclazia in international competitions, will be prohibited to start any political party and to join any political party.

If it is the flag of Habianclazia, the person will be executed by shooting.

If it will be known for sure that someone asked or helped the person who burned the flag, that person will get the same punishment.

The Coordination's national glyphs are not a "flag". The national glyphs will be found inscribed on official property of the Coordination. For an individual to go to the trouble of defacing the Coordination's national glyphs indicates that they possess anti-Coordination intent, and a tendency towards future anti-Coordination actions. They are treated as all vagrants within the Coordination are - persecuted to the letter of the law, and according to the severity of their crimes and the cost:benefit of their redemption.

There is, in theory, the possibility for one to replicate the Coordination's national glyphs for their own defacement. This is unusual behaviour, and while would likely not constitute vagrancy, an individual who does this may be studied by the Coordination Psychological Evaluation Division. Otherwise, they will be left alone.

In Chrysanthemum State, there are no laws against flag burning. However, it is almost unheard of.

The right to public protest is paramount in Isvi Lah. As is kindling - if all you have is a flag to get you through the cold desert night, no one is going to get up yours about using it however you can.

If it is someone else's flag, it is commended if we are at war with them. If not, they are admitted into a mental asylum.

If it is the Oppressthemvillean flag, we don't just burn them alive. We burn their entire family first, with them watching. We then erase any records of their bloodline from history.

Burning the Oppressthemvillean flag in a different country (trust me, we know) is a casus belli and we will nuke you.

There has been one Oppressthemvillean flag burned in Oppressthemville since "I had my swift rise to power". It was the previous leader. This was the last act of his life before his execution.

Usually ignored unless the flag burning falls under hate speech or incitement of violence, in which case the person burning the flag will be arrested and charged with a misdemeanor for every time this has happened.

Illegal; offenders will be branded with the mark of a traitor, publicly humiliated, barred from various establishments and, if foreigners, deported to their country of origin and declared persona non grata.
This only applies to Hittishan flags; any other is fair game.

Unless the flag is burned by the glory of the sun, it is strictly Illegal, and will result in the loss of the left pinky
