No slavery. In fact, we consider slavery to be the height of barbarity, and Crown Law permits the Navy to board and apprehend suspected slavers where and whenever they find them.

Yes but only in the form of forced labour in prison.

Yes.
My nation works on the basis that the most intelligent will prosper. The least intelligent are sent out to work for the upper class until death.
We do not engage in a 'slave trade' with other nations, and ~70% of slaves 'float'- that is, are hired by anyone.

In theory we do not support the enslavement of beings with the potential of free will, also including sentient AIs and uplifted animals.
In practice there are a number of crimes that get you turned into a lobotonized servitor with an AI controlled brain implant that makes your more complex decisions, and others that get you brainwashed to the point of losing a significant portion of your free will. Given that anything below a certain level of sentience and free will legally counts as cattle (children are excluded, mentally handicapped are not), yes, there are slaves, but after the adjustments they are no longer capable of wanting another existence.
And yes, sometimes we also create our clones as mentally stunted cattle simply to save time and money. Or to sell them.

Slavery is banned, and it isn't supported.

Slavery was a common practice until May of 2012, when the institution of slavery in our nation was most rightfully eradicated by the foreign heroes from Urmanian.

Slavery is illegal, in regards to our citizens. Prisoners of war can be found in work camps around the Union.

Higher Intelligence and reasoning skills are things that a Shoggoth has to learn, and many never quite get the hang of it. As a result a good chunk of our population is no more mentally advanced than your average canine. Slavery isn't so much supported as it is a grim necessity.

No; slavery was made illegal in Ruridova in 1835. On at least three occasions after that point Ruridova bought large numbers of slaves... and then promptly gave them citizenships, educations, and their freedom.

As a signatory of the Amistad Declaration, that is a definite no. The only thing that can be considered forced servitude is when criminals are assigned to work labor projects and community service to atone for crimes.

This is us, although our Penal Slavery isn't really slavery because it's not as harsh.

But Slavery itself is banned

You must remember, as a minecraft nation, the cities of Witness are all walled cities by a matter of necessity (except for Strawtoobs, which is an island.) Therefore, each city has limited resources, which can't really be wasted feeding prisoners. Therefore, most cities use prisoners as government owned slaves for municipal projects, or as part of the city defence force. Of course, cities are free to trade slaves to each other if they have no need or want for them, and its not unheard of for said slaves to be exported...

At the very least a foreign national would never be enslaved. Unless they broke the law, or were imported as a slave...

In Yamatai, we have the Living Property Act which regulated slavery until it was abolished. Essentially, the law said that persons created by other persons or entities were the property of that person or entity for a period of 8 years, after which they were granted full freedoms. This applied to natural children as well as artificially created androids and AIs. At present, slavery is illegal and it is the Empress' desire to pressure the remaining slaveholder nations around the YSE to renounce slavery as we have.

Thank you.

The Kawaiian "public justice" system sometimes prescribes periods of indentured servitude as Penance for certain crimes. However, the convicted Penitent must voluntarily submit to that servitude, the same way he would submit to any other prescribed Penance.

Other than that, the Kawaiian religion, and therefore the Kawaiian nation, expressly forbids slavery in any form.

Of course. It's not like those puny humans on Earth have any other value. In fact, Decepticon anti-slavers argue that the humans aren't even good as slaves and that we should just declare the species redundant and run them all through biological rendering.

All humans, well, all beings that aren't carnivorous dinosaurs, are sold into slavery or sacrificed.

No, and if proven you're somehow connected to slavery/slave trade, you're automatically sentenced to death as slavery is regarded as a violation of human rights, which is one of the nation's highest crimes.
