Self defense is legal in Yannia, up to the point of disabling the attacker from continuing the attack. Using excessive force is not legal.
Yannia's nation page contains an error. The population should be in millions, not in billions.

Seeing as the Armed Police patrol every street everywhere 24/7 crime is literally non existent. Though every Chernoblian is required to attend military training on the weekends and is more than equipped to defend themselves.

Crime is sadly rather abundant in amongst the Masin Kari, however, citizens are given a yearly tax deduction for their participation in "Civilian Defence Squads" where justice is meted out without direct expense of the state.

...Oh yes! Self defense is a very fondly held principle of our people.

self defence, when limited to no greater force then is necessary and apropriate using the means available, is not considered a crime. claims of self defence in criminal proceedings shall however, be thoroughly investigated in a regourosly objective manor.

frequent reppitition of such claims shall also of course, be considered suspicious and reviewed accordingly.
truth isn't what i say. isn't what you say. isn't what anybody says. truth is what is there, when no one is saying anything.

Self defense is a fact of life in the largest cities in Maurepas, such as New Orleans, being one of the murder capitals of the world, :(

The Right to Self Defense and to Bear Arms is held sacrosanct but is generally held on a case by case basis in the local courts and occasionally in the Palais de Justice...

The law states that in Britannia. A person being physically harmed in a public place has the right to defend themselves by means depending on the situation.
In your own domestic home you are entitled to act as you see fit, again depending on the situation.
