@Etorania
Again, we laugh at the backwards practises of Etoriana.

In the State of Volnotov it is common to strip thiefs naked and then lock them up in a small cages in the middle of the town/city central square(usualy atached to a rope and hanging above the entrance). The thief then has to survive for weeks on mold covered bread and stagnant water while residing in the cage, covered in his/her own feces all while enduring daily public humiliation.

Condemn, goverments are nothing but quasi-feudalist backwards institutions. Only a primitive nation would require one in order to function.

Condemn. This is ritually impure and unhygienic.

In Etoriana, incest is a capital offense.

Condemn. Such a stupid and barbaric practice indeeds reveals the inherent hypocracy of Volnotov.

Condemn. Although we frown upon incest, it should not be worthy of arrest and execution.

The Nuclear Fist has no death penalty. Instead, criminals worthy of such are forced to do the most backbreaking work in our labour camps.

Commend. The death penalty causes social disorder and extreme distress for the inmates.

In Achaea-Graecia, there is a sign up sheet for a popular sport with heavy drinkers called Cheese Rolling. The contestants drink a minimum of three 16 oz beers with a time limit of five minutes. They are rolled down a ten foot hill. When they reached the bottom they are spun around five times. They then have to race their opponent to the finish line, ten yards away from the bottom of the hill.

Edit: Winners receive $50. People arrested while drunk on a separate occasion are forced to pay a fine of $50, but they can earn it back by Cheese Rolling

Condemn, this leads to public intoxication, which is socially disruptive and leads to crime.

In Damoclea, the Judges have absolute power to enforce the law. They arrest, try, convict, sentence, and carry out sentences on the spot. Trials are very brief. Plenty of criminals are summarily executed, though most are simply imprisoned or fined.

The Nuclear Fist's government does not recognize marriage, and thus people can literally marry whoever they want provided they have agreed.

In Living Freedom Land, snake fighting is legal. So is dog and cock fighting, but those sports are seen as "foreigner" and "European."

Condemn. We tried that and it failed. Constitutional monarchy is better.

In Hydrenia, the government recently outlawed the traditional practice of Hydrenian males serving as mercenaries in other national armed forces. The penalty is exile for life. So, essentially, you can enlist in a foreign army, but if you do, you can't come back, so pack everything you have.

Murder is usually punished by labour camp. Except if it is a politically charged murder: murder of fascists are let off, while murder of communists are doubled time in labour camp (as long as it was political affiliation that was the reason).
