The only crime that's officially punishable by death (meaning that the Queen will send her troops after you) is treason: 1) attempting to kill, harm or depose the Queen, or 2) aiding a foreign enemy. That's because it's the only crime at all—everything else is legal.

☉☉☉||Kihodova Hopi||☼☼☼
A Hopi-Based Pueblo Kingdom in a more advanced America. Highly divergent from the Real Life Hopi peoples

Campfire Tales: Rumors of a 'pale-faced' man circulate around Kihodova Hopi. Believed to be descendant of the Nordwegans... Shaman lives after falling into a fire with only mild injuries... While the remains of the Aztecs remain at war, peace appears to be in sight as talks happen between two major warlords...

This is likely going to be filled with tons of historical inaccuracies, false information, etc, etc. As such, do not take this as an accurate representation of the Native Hopi nor as an attempt at a realistic alt-history for a quite frankly unlikely event.
