Legal by dual majority, meaning without consent of the father it is not. Also said father has the right to recommend it lawfully, meaning that should the mother not follow the recommendation he is free from all lawful responsibility.

There are certain cases, like spotted genetic defects or undesirable traits in the parents (e.g. furfaggotry, overt religious insanity) where the state mandates either abortion or immediate seizure of the child to be brought up by more fitting facilities.

Fully legal up until the moment of birth. Although no Tsvarchivan doctor would actually perform an abortion that late for circumstances that were not dire.

No consent of the father is needed. No arbitrary age requirements. No reason must be given.

Abortion is illegal, unless the mothers life is in danger. Other than that, the baby must be carried full term regardless of how the mother became impregnated. Reichsland's government has spent a lot of money on foster care and adoption programs.

Abortion is a crime against the sanctity of life and it is highly illegal and socially stigmatized.

Or at least it was. The current Regent is a pragmatist and the antithesis to that sort of thinking that life is at all sacred so it's recently been legalized, though it remains socially stigmatized due to the whole Natalism thing that's ingrained into our culture.

Only legal in special cases:

The Law on Abortion:
"Abortion is permitted under following conditions:

If the parents of the embryo or fetus:
- Are not married ('The Law on Marriage')
- are younger than 21 years old OR
- the embryo is a result of sexual assault ('The Law on Sexual Assault')
AND it is the will of the mother to have the embryo or fetus aborted, it is fully legal until 10 weeks of pregnancy. If there is a high risk for the mother of the embryo or fetus to die giving birth, the abortion is fully legal whenever the mother comes to seek medical attention."

The state decides whether abortion should or should not be carried out. If the child will be an inferior life form, or has a genetic disease, or will in any other way be counterproductive to the state and to society, abortion must be carried out. If the child is perfectly capable of serving the state, abortion must not be carried out.

Abortion is illegal except when the mother's life is in danger. Only then will an abortion be granted, however the doctor that performs the abortion must submit a report detailing the reasons why the abortion was performed. The FHA, Federal Health Administration, will review the report and determine if the abortion was legitimate.

Most Landser despise the concept of abortion, except in the aforementioned case. When this occurs, the Landser are usually sympathetic to the mother.

Abortion is available and free up to the 16th week. After that the mother must give birth to the baby but the government can finance an adoption if she still dont want a baby.
The decision about abortion is 100% up to the female. The father of the baby can not veto a abortion decision.

There was preformed about 3 and a half million abortions in Walosia in 2012 and it has remained at that level since about 1980.
In 2012 it was 434 abortions per 1000 child birth

CANON UPDATE (OOC):
I have given this a lot of thought and I have decided to do some major changes to the Walosian History Canon.

The largest change that I will be doing is the removal of the “Walosian-Khelsharian War of 2009” and the following abdication of Empress Liat as well as the removal of the character Liat completely. The reason why is because I have developed my nation into a more realistic fashion during the 2014-2015 era and after reviewing older post I see that the war and abdication of Liat is both unrealistic, doesn’t fit with the overall nation and is simply unprofessional.

It's legal but there's only one center for it since it's so rare. Most of the women who want a baby have to actively go out of their way to become impregnated, since males are few and the vast majority of relationships in the country are female on female.

That being said, the birthrate is quite high, the quality of childhood children receive is fantastic since there are very few "accidental" children, and then ones that are accidental tend to be happy accidents.

Given how Sidhae are grown, not born, it pretty much renders the whole abortion issue obsolete.

Provided Sidhae were born naturally (a rather disgusting idea best not suggested in polite Sidh society), abortions would probably be carried out for eugenic reasons only. In a society like ours, degenerate human excuses like "I didn't feel like it" or "I don't want children yet" just wouldn't cut it - children are the future soldiers, workers and scientists of any species, so producing them is pretty obviously the patriotic duty of any female within a nation. Not being able to support those children wouldn't be an excuse either in a nation with such generous provisions for it's citizens as ours.

But all that is just theoretical smart-talk. The fact is, abortions have no legal status for the simple impossibility of a natural pregnancy among Sidhae, and the general way how they procreate.

The only abortion-related law that exists is the one pertaining to the half-blooded human bastards that some of our less conscientous men sire with human females. If a pregnancy caused by a Sidh is discovered, it must be immediately aborted, by force if necessary. The very notion of some degenerate halfies who can claim to share blood with us existing is an affront to the Sidh race, so the lot of us are quite willing to go to extreme lengths to keep any such half-breeds from being born.
Freedom doesn't mean being able to do as one please, but rather not to do as one doesn't please.

A fool sees religion as the truth. A smart man sees religion as a lie. A ruler sees religion as a useful tool.

The more God in one's mouth, the less in one's heart.

100% legal with absolutely no restrictions. It's the woman's choice, after all.

Though, given how thorough and universal sex education and access to contraceptives are, they're usually not necessary in the first place.

It is entirely legal and morally acceptable to cease building a new Decepticon at any time before its activation. In fact, it is so acceptable that to suggest otherwise would get you a trip to Debugging. After all, to claim that a bench full of incompletely-assembled parts and unprogrammed circuits is some kind of life would indicate a complete disconnect with reality.

It is also legal and morally acceptable to deactivate a physically-complete Decepticon at any point before it becomes at all self-aware, which is typically any age under 2. Doing this, however, is not at all easy. All new Decepticons must have an automated self-defense subroutine that kicks in if any type of assault is detected. This makes them quite good at protecting themselves from deactivation attempts even before they are conscious. The requirement is meant to protect new Decepticons from those who would enslave them or even capture them to sell as scrap, but it is also an excellent deterrent to any attempts at "post-activation abortion."

As for humans (and any other biological species we bother to pay any attention to), it is entirely legal, and from the Decepticon standpoint, completely morally acceptable, to treat them in the same way we treat our own incomplete offspring. Stopping the build process midstream is messier with biologicals, but we don't see any difference in the principle. We also find the notion of an offspring starting to automatically build itself - and do so within another creature - as a creepy curse visited upon mammals and similar biologicals. It just stands to reason, as far as we're concerned, that many females will not want this unruly subroutine to start running on its own after a simple fertilization event, and since contraceptive methods can fail, it's just logical that some are going to have to stop the build process once it has begun.

Alas, to the dismay of our immigrants, our idea of it being completely okay to deactivate a being under the age of 2 is also in practice. Finished cloned humans that are deemed defective - that is, those who somehow differ from the current Approved DNA Codec for the Human Species or have a productivity-lowering deviation from the current Approved Human Phenome - are routinely thrown into biological rendering like so many reject parts. Attempts by former-biologicals to convince the rest of us that babies have awareness and can feel fear and pain from the moment they leave the production environment have failed, mainly because most Decepticons do not really understand the meanings of the looks in human eyes and tend to miss the significance of the "light of intelligence" that is present even in very new humans. Even if the Cloning Center people did see it, though, the policy would almost surely remain the same. After all, it doesn't make sense to keep defects, whether they are made of metal or cells.

Completely legal. There are no age or term requirements, but a doctor has the right to refuse based on observation if the patient is suspected to be making the decision under threat of harm by another party. Those cases are then handled by the Department of Health and Family Planning in order to protect the individual.

Legal abortion is mostly viewed as a necessity in modern society. A woman's health and welfare is just as important as any other person, and any law obstructing her from making major medical decisions is unconstitutional in Koderland. The welfare of the fetus is in the hands of the mother, not the state- and it is not legally counted as a person until birth. There are laws, however, that include harsher sentences for those that harm a pregnant woman.

Abortion is seen as denying the state more manpower, and thus, it is illegal and punishable by imprisonment of 10 years. More than one attempt at abortion will result in execution via firing squad.
