by Xylonia
Marijuana: Legal for those above 18, and very little has been found on public health grounds that makes it significantly more dangerous than alcohol or cigarettes.
Alcohol: Legal outside Jahema. Inside Jahema, it is not per se illegal to have it on your person, but it is illegal to sell or otherwise distribute alcohol for profit. Many have gone around the text of this law by establishing non-profit bars.
Murder: Illegal, except for situations where murdering a person was necessary for self-defense.
Atheism: Legal, the country fluctuated between state atheist, laicist, and secular during the Xylonian Union, and the country is likely to not take religion too seriously.
Christianity: Legal, but the religion has a small presence in the nation, being around 5% of the population. Many Christians from Beria became atheists during the Xylonian Union.
Catholicism: Legal, same as above. Calls for banning the religion after their abuse scandals have occurred, but have been mooted by the small number of faithful in the nation.
Islam: Legal, Jahema, a state in central Xylonia, has a majority-Muslim population.
Driving: Legal, freedom of movement has been considered an 'extraconstitutional right', meaning that while the right is not in the Constitution, it is considered necessary for group welfare.
Foreign Language: (OOC: I've never heard of countries actually banning foreign languages?) Legal, Xylonia is trilingual, and uses a foreign language (English) as a means of communicating between the three national groups.
Dictatorship: Depends on how one defines dictatorship. Communist and fascist sentiments are illegal in the nation, so ideologically motivated dictators are out, unless you want a visit from the brutal very friendly and likable TEZI agency. However, the president has emergency powers that may be granted by two-thirds approval of Parliament.
Weapons owned by citizens: Legal, with some pretty stringent restrictions. One cannot own guns which have automatically-ejecting cartridges, or are able to re-cock themselves, unless one submits a document to a judge explaining why they want a weapon like this.
Weapons owned by trained military and/or police: The police and army owns weapons. Xylonian police may or may not be carrying a gun on their person, due to varying factors such as the danger of the neighborhood they are patrolling, or depending on the situation. There are strict rules of engagement that the police must follow before shooting to kill.
Rape: Illegal. Jahema has its own laws for marital rape, although the government has asked the state to align the law with the federal government.
Abortion: Legal. However, they may not abort a child based on sex or disability. Again, things are different in Jahema.
Slavery: Illegal. Xylonia has a very potent anti-slavery program which has expanded its focus from slavery alone to scrip work, and even wage robbery.
Adoption: Legal. Xylonia has a lax adoption program. If one has no criminal history and they have a disposable income of 3,000 lans, they may adopt a child.
Putting people ages 1-13 in military: Illegal. The Xylonian Union had widespread military schooling from 14-18, with the understanding that if the nation were close to falling, these students would become members of the military.
Election: Legal. Xylonia is a democratic republic with a popularly elected president and parliament.
Robbery: Illegal. The right to private property and the fair expropriation thereof is guaranteed in the Basic Law.
Assault: Illegal. Physical assault done in self-defense is legal.
Freedom of speech: Legal. However, don't expect the government to take too kindly to protesters blocking roads or burning property.

Marijuana: Legal over age 15
Alcohol: Consuming anything with an alcohol content above 10% ABV requires that you be over age 15. Anything less than that is legal for anyone to drink.
Murder: Illegal
Atheism: Illegal
Christianity: Illegal
Catholicism: Illegal
Islam: Illegal
Driving: Legal. You must be 15 or older and have a valid driver's license.
Foreign Language: Legal
Dictatorship: Legal. Some people forget Hadin still is a dictatorship (under the premise of a Theocracy). It just has a nicer dictator than usual.
Weapons owned by citizens: VERY legal. Hadinians consider weapon ownership a fundamental right.
Weapons owned by trained military and/or police: Again, legal, and a necessity considering most of the population is already armed anyway.
Rape: Technically illegal. In practice it's a huge problem, particularly marital rape.
Abortion: Absolutely illegal.
Slavery: Technically illegal. Don't look at North Zanzes. It doesn't exist.
Adoption: Legal, and encouraged. You get a generous tax allowance for each child you have, and Hadin has illegalized abortions so that leaves a surplus of kids running around unwanted by their birth parents.
Putting people ages 1-13 in military: The legal age is 15. It used to be 14. Before that it used to be even younger (in a more unofficial capacity) but the current High-Envoy isn't big on conscripting kids.
Election: Local elections are held for municipal areas. Everyone else is picked through appointment. Only adult male citizens can vote in elections.
Robbery: Illegal
Assault: Illegal, unless you are found to be in defense of yourself or your property.
Freedom of speech: Technically legal but in practice there's tons of restrictions that make this legality only technical in nature. For example you can't blaspheme against the Septimist religion in public.
