The entirety of the Estlobian populace is classified as the same race, and marriage with foreigners is outlawed, so interracial marriage is therefore nonexistent.

It's legal in Ithreland, and very few people care, but those who do are very vocal. It peaked around the New Year because more people were drunk than usual and said what they thought, but freedom of speech > the concept of hate speech, so it's well within their rights to be a jerk.
The government is elected from pools of experts in whichever fields are necessary, with polarizing issues having a minimum quotient for political balance (like abortion rights would be decided by a mix of pro-choice/pro-life expert advocates, for example).

In our language, Charellia derives from a word meaning "people of unknown ancestry." A large portion of our population has multiethnic heritage, and interracial marriage has never been an issue for anybody except far right hate groups.

Interracial marriage is completely legal in all Imperial provinces and Arcadia. It has never been illegal anywhere in the Empire and you would be hard-pressed to find anyone that believes it should be. Due to the Empire's status as a multinational country, interracial marriage is relatively widespread.

Never ever been illegal or against any civil code. They accounted for 29.6% of marriages in 2017. In the last poll of its kind in 1967, only 3% of the population were against interracial marriage.

The Charter of Rights protects the right to freedom from discrimination by the state, including on the basis of race and colour. Hence, interracial marriage is legal by constitutional mandate.

Given that Omerica is a multiethnic society, interracial marriage is relatively common.

Murinae does not recognize race in any part of it's legislation or constitution. As such there are no restrictions on interracial marriages by default as technically there are no races to intermingle as recognized by the Government.

Distinctions between human "races" largely faded with the discovery of Fleet Girls and their Abyssal cousins. Nowadays, the former are universally revered, while the latter are persecuted or even shot on sight in many countries. Only the USSNA and the Soviet Union (and Bolivia, of all places) extend full citizenship to Abyssal Fleet Girls, including the right to get married.

The relationships come with their own set of quirks, but they tend to work out for the most part. Sadly, breeding doesn't produce more Fleet Girls, but rather ordinary humans with a deathly pallor and silverish hair, as seen on the North American infantrywoman depicted below.

The practice of interracial marriage was common back then, during the 7th century as the result of free trade between various nations all across the world. In addition, even the royalty was married to the foreign consorts. For instance, the marriage between the youngest daughter of the empress, Princess Homyeong and the heir apparent to the Yorkland's throne, Albert, Prince of Westernlands. The princess would be crowned as the queen consort, and their eldest child would be named as her husband's successor, despite the child's biracial origin. Next, according to a poll conducted by the social workers, 82.8% percent of Hwaneuls held a relatively positive opinion regarding the topic, while the remaining 17.2%, gave a simple 'idgaf' reply. Therefore, being an empire with diverse ethnic groups, it is common for you to see someone having a mixed ancestry in this genial nation.

Interracial marriage is common,legal and accepted to the Azadistanis.
Azadistani is not used for single race and Azadistan was founded by an alliance of Sufi pilgrims often Arab,Pakistani,Indian,Indonesian,Bangladeshi, Chinese,afghani,Persian etc. and indigenous Arab Beduin.
Also Islam says interracial marriage is fine.
All communities are accepting of it.
Azadistan gave refuge from those fleeing punishment for interracial marriage.
70% of marriages are interracial.

It was legalized in the sixties and has been generally accepted among the populous, although it does get criticism from far right groups that want to ethnically cleansed the nation and far left groups that want to abolish marriage entirely.

Interracial marriage is legal. In fact 65% of Cruxians are multiracial though with most their ancestry is predominately European with other ancestry being more diluted.

Interracial marriage is very much legal (it's never actually been illegal) and is incredibly common in British Guangzhou, particularly between people of Chinese and white European (especially British, but also Irish, French, German, and Dutch) descent. About 20% of the population is of Eurasian (mixed Asian/European) descent as a result of widespread interracial marriages. This is one of the most, if not the most, significant populations of Eurasian people in the world outside of Central Asian countries like Kazakhstan or Uzbekistan, where interracial marriages between Asians and Europeans (mostly Russians) are also very common.

Interracial marriages is extremely illegal as a result of the implementation of National Socialism. Since we are against diversity and multiculturalism, we are currently practicing racial segregation and racial purity.

Interracial relations are a hot topic in FII politics. It is currently legal. The country has had a lot more lax immigration laws before the end of the 1940s, causing many Asians to immigrate there and mix with the white populace. Herman Von-Kitchener is personally neutral on the matter, as long as it is between FII citizens and who share the FII culture they have grown around.

Does Interracial Marriage exist in YN? Yes, it does exist.
Is it common, illegal, rare? It is legal and rare.
Are there groups of people who oppose IR marriage in YN? Opinions differ but there is no organized opposition on the matter.

There is nothing preventing interracial marriage, however the general assumption is that the relationship must be infertile or otherwise not result in issue, as it is a great taboo for someone to be mixed-raced.

It is neither legal or illegal, it simply is not legislated. People are however forbidden to marry into their own families, so it is more likely that there may be interracial marriage.

Interracial marriages are rare, as they were only legalized recently, but they are rapidly increasing. Ironically, most notable interracial couple is the Royal family, and the marriage of the King and Queen is really the only reason it was legalized. Before that it was illegal, but laws on it weren't really enforced
