FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES

Freedom from discrimination:
Not specified.
The Republic recognizes and guarantees the inviolable rights of individuals and social groups where human personality is expressed. All citizens have equal social dignity and are equal before the law, without distinction of sex, race, sexual orientation, language, political opinion, personal and social conditions. It is the duty of the Republic to eliminate obstacles which prevent the full development of human beings and the effective participation of all workers in the public sphere of the country. Everyone, without any discrimination, has the right to equal pay for equal work.

Freedom of religion:
Yes. The Constitution guarantees religious liberty because religious belief is personal. However, the Republic is independent from any religion since religion and the State are separate. No one can be obliged to contribute in any way whatsoever to the acts and ceremonies of a religion, nor to observe the days of rest. The ministers of different religions are excluded from holding any military or civil office and from engaging in any form of political propaganda.

For the record, Reloria doesn't have a formal codified constitution, believing such to be too inflexible for a modern government. Instead, rights are guaranteed by a series of governmental acts, court judgements, and conventions, and no government can pass legislation that subsequent governments are unable to modify or repeal (known as Council Supremacy). That said, the rights guaranteed by constitutional law and legal convention are roughly analogous.

Freedom of religion: Yes
Freedom from cruel and unusual punishment: Yes
Freedom of thought: Yes
Right of self-defense: Yes
Right to food: Yes
Right to form a labor union: Yes, but labor unions and companies are essentially the same thing. Everything is either communal work or a socialist coop. Labor unions still make sense in foreign enterprises though.
Right to clothing: Yes
Right of asylum: Yes
Right to housing: Yes
Right to internet access: Yes
Right to work (bars the government from forcing labor union participation): I don't quite understand. There is a civic duty for all the able healthy adults to work in order for their rights to be granted.
Right to property: Personal property yes, as well as to the product of one's labor in a socialist coop. But there is no right to private property. Private Property is theft.
Freedom from discrimination: Yes
Freedom from exile: No. People can be exiled from certain places such as homes or community grounds if the users do not want them there. Something similar goes for terrorists, foreign militaries and companies on nationwide scale.
Freedom from slavery: Yes, as well as from wage slavery.
Right to die: Yes.
Right to water: Yes.
Right to a fair trial: Sort of. Here, it is the right to a non-violent solution of civil conflict by an independent jury.
Right to a lawyer: Sort of, yes. It's the right to an independent defender before the jury.
Right to life: No. Abortion is legal and conducted in a clean and professional manner. Killing is legal in self-defense. Euthanasia and assisted suicide are also a thing.
Right to refuse medical treatment: Yes.
Right to petition: Yes.
Right to protest: Yes.
Right to privacy: Yes.
