Swearing in Auzkhia tends to be more scatological, at least the more common swears, translated into English, "Shit", "cack" "crap". Everyone knows that we like to say Scheiße. However, it's not seen as offensive as in other societies, it's seen as more extreme and too casual for professional company.

There are not that many strong regulations against in media, it's perfectly legal to shout such vulgarities.

The most popular swear word is Sæthdrâ which is translated as donkey's ass

So it means an ass's ass? Lulz.

The most popular cuss word in the Empire is todo n'yori, which translates as b***h. Profane language and cussing is completely legal in the empire, however in formal occasions it is severely frowned upon.

While it's generally frowned upon in society, one would find the largest amount of swearers in those who are veterans, currently serve in the military, or some job or occupation related to the military.
'Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom: For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.' (II Timothy 4:1-5 NKJV)

The C word is the rudest word in Vallermoore. A far less rude term is to call someone a Ponyist. In between are all manner of foul words. It is illegal to swear at a judge, policeman or prison officer or to let loose a whole torrent of profanity, but it still happens.

In Khasinkonia, most people, including children swear. However, because of a very vocal minority, there are laws in place to reduce profanity in large public areas, government buildings, and schools. But, again, as swearing is very common, fuck now has a similar potency to what damnit once had, and now lesser swear words such as damn and hell can be put into rated PG movies without a second though. Fuck and other words like it normally only garner a film or other piece of media a PG-13 rating for mild language. Swearing has been so overused that favourite classroom songs of many tweens include Uncle Fucka, [insert name her]'s Mom is a Bitch, and Were you Born and Asshole, and most adults just roll their eyes. So yeah, swearing has been totally diluted in Khasinkonia.

In The Motherfucking Interstellar Federation, it is quite fucking common to swear, although people get pissed if you do it in public. So that's why many just swear in private, with friends, socialising, etc. However if you just go around swearing as loud as possible, you bet your arse that people would simply tell you "kindly" shut the fuck up. Although racial slurs and swears are most frowned upon; many have had the shit kicked out of them for that.

In the JSR, people don't swear too much. But if you do hear one of them swear, it will probably be "vittenschveit", which means "idiot/dumbass", and "saermzkof", which is a general interjection of annoyance, anger, or surprise.

In Ferdistan, swearing is nearly considered an art form, since most citizens are required to learn at least 4 languages and probably know as many as 10, meaning there are a whole lot of words to cuss with.

Generally, given the nation's francophone proclivity, French curses are considered the strongest, and using them in anything but a home or family setting is considered impolite, and even then only for serious things. Following French, Persian and Arabic cursing is common, and considered less reprehensible with most, save a few hard-core Muslims who dislike the corruption of the Prophet's tongue. Finally, there are several simple but commonly used curses in the various "native" languages, which are generally words for various parts of the equine anatomy and what comes out of said parts.

In terms of censorship, all but "native" curses are usually banned from radio shows, and even then they are quite rare, since most children's characters are generally considered as not having all that much reason to swear.

Swearing is legal in our nation, although relatively uncommon, at least in public, as Gandoorese culture generally frowns upon swearing in public places. (It must be noted however that our culture doesn't consider the following to be swears: Damn, Goddamn, crap, ass, piss, Hell)

During a live debate between French president Jacques Chirac and Tallam's President Francois Bonnet in the 1999 Tallam Independence Referendum, Bonnet called the French leader "not only an affront to the democracy of Tallam, but a lying, conniving, manipulative, evil, bourgeois cunt." Chirac responded with a simple murmur of "no I'm not", knowing Tallam had won its freedom

Since ancient times many Ruvians have been known to swear very often. Generally it is seen as a sign of being lower class but that never stopped lords and even kings from the habit. In modern Ru, English language swears are very popular, and most have Ruvian language equivalents anyway.

As far as the media goes, TV programs are allowed to air with fully uncensored language at 10pm or later.
