Omicron Taran law distinguishes between "low treason" and "high treason". "Low treason", such as selling government secrets to a foreign power, is punished with either a long prison term or permanent exile and the confiscation of all assets (condemned's choice). The latter is far more common, as might be expected. "High treason", where the act results in immediate harm to the nation, is punishable by death.

Each step is based on the assumption that they survive the previous torture.

1. Crucify them the Auphelian way* (65% die)

2. Drag them through the streets as people throw their rubbish and raw sewage into the streets before them (8% die)

3. Cut them 1,000 times with tiny pieces of paper (5% die)

4. Force them to roll through a room of broken glass, then have the glass washed off by boiling oil, and then force them to swim through a pool of lemon juice and salt. (11% die)

3. Slather them in meat and set a pack of hungry wolves on them for 5 minutes of hunting/gorging (10.999% die)

4. They will then have all of the bones in their body broken one by one and then leave them in a windowless room until they die. (0.001% die)


* The crucifix is covered in rusted nails for when they struggle to lift themselves up to breath, there is a small fire and coals under their feet, just enough to make them blister, and every time they get used to the heat, more coals are added until their entire lower leg is engulfed in flames for the last five minutes of the two hour torture. Above them there is a slow drip of water and acid. This is a bit of psychological torture, as most of the drips are water, but every so often a drop of acid will fall, making them wary of every drop that falls. And finally, in front of them, their family will be slowly killed, one by one, by a slow and methodical process of cutting off every limb (Fingers --> hands --> toes --> feet --> arms --> legs --> nose --> ears --> head). The limbs of their family members will be then used to feed the flames, and they will be forced to breathe in the acrid smoke of their dead family. At the end of the process, the collected blood of their family will be poured over them to douse the flames, and they will be required to drink a litre of the blood.

Traitors are generally shipped off to penal colonies, where they will serve their sentence as indentured workers until death. The most heinous traitors may be executed if found guilty, but capital punishment has not been used for some time.

Classified like this:

Low Scale Offense: Taken in and interrogated, and then possibly having to go through a harsh sentence.
Medium Scale Offense: Interrogated, and also tortured. Possible we deport or exile them.
Large Scale Offense: Tortured and executed.

In Peacetime:
Traitors to Hamilpore are considered the worst imaginable citizens who have failed in their duty to the nation. Thus they will be put permanently in prison until their death. All former honors will be disavowed.

In War:
Traitors are the worst imaginable citizens who have compromised the ability of Hamilpore to function during a time of hardship and war. These traitors will be shot until dead. All former honors will be disavowed.

Treatment of traitors varies by the severity of their actions. For relatively minor actions, they may be pardoned or sentenced to 2-3 years in a very patriotic prison. For more severe crimes of treachery, they receive increasingly unusual punishments, in addition to being stripped of their citizenship and any belongings aside from the clothes on their backs. They are often also exiled from Jeminia, and their exit is a festival, in which they are paraded through the capital, whilst being slapped with fish and pelted with various objects, before being thrown into a dumpster and sent off to another country. In addition to treachery, traitors are charged with all related crimes they may have committed, and the punishments for those crimes are added to the sentences.

well, we checked ourselves what was the reason and why of such an act. if it be for wickedness itself, it will be executed immediately, but if it does not appear to us to threaten our people then it will only be warned never to be able to return to our nation.

The traitor is tried in a civilian court and given due process.Treason is the only crime for which execution is mandated by law, and execution is carried out by drop hanging in private.

We send them to the only prison that exists within our territory, a far-away island. They live there, alone, till death. After 6 years, they can opt to receive a People's trial to decide if they're worthy of a time reduction.
Fortunately, treason has happened only twice in the history of Eumarea; one of them, because of age, was allowed to return to mainland and live their last days with their family.

For treason (of which we have a very narrow definition), the individual is sent to a rehabilitation center (a much more humane form of a prison that focuses on gentle rehabilitation rather than punishment), usually for between 5 and 10 years, unless the offense caused great harm to the nation or caused an individual to die, in which case a sentence over 10 years would be appropriate.

For crimes not treason but still against our nation (ex. leaking classified documents), the person is usually stripped of any government job they have and sentenced to intensive community service, to try to make up for the damage they have caused. If they do not comply, they are sentenced to a rehabilitation center for several months.

Traitors are typically hanged, shot or put in a concentration camp.

Showy and extravagant executions aren’t tolerated. Why waste so much time when the end result is the same?
