Put simply: if you f**k with us, you die.

Jones f**ked with us, so he died. End of.

You wouldn’t let him fight for his life? You just kill him? Why not make him fight a lion? Or a Lawbringer?

Gladiatorial spectacles could help keep a population in place by keeping them happy.

It doesn't matter if he f*cked with you, you still offer a cigarette. If you execute somone, do it properly, don't halfa$s it.

Indeed. Why leave the criminal helpless to stop his doom when you could get some entertainment out of him fighting.

Fulin is proud that, as a civilised nation, we no longer use the death penalty.

We exile the worst criminals to an offshore island. And don't think we leave them to starve, either: we provide seeds, metalware and tools, fabric, and firewood.

Criminals that perform terrible acts get thrown into the Gulag to perform hard labor. If we need to, we execute via firing squad, medical experimentation (so we don't use animals), or the Blood Eagle.

Criminals in ashfeld are either killed on the spot by a Lawbringer, or sent to an arena to fight for thier lives, Myreans exile them to Valkenheim...and Valkenheim has no laws.

We did consider throwing him into the arena, but we felt that he'd survive for longer than we thought he deserved to.

Need I remind you that this is my country, and not yours?

So you have arenas. But you didn’t let him regain his/her honor by trial by combat, because you thought his/her death would be too slow? Is your country not driven by oaths and honor?

Traitors have no honour; Jones proved that when he instigated the rebellion against our glorious Apocalypse. Had he not done so, then we would have allowed the colony to continue existing without any interference. Things did not have to end the way they did, but his actions made it so.

That is why we wanted him to suffer, and suffer quickly.

Then why make his death quick? It sound like you just wanted to be rid of the guy. Truely believed he deserved to suffer for his acts, then why not torture him? Why couldn’t you slowly drip away at his sanity with drops of water, or hang them in a cage and let the elements do the dirty work?

We did torture him, actually, for several hours after he was detained; a detail that was supposed to be kept secret, to prevent the WA sniffing around, but you've forced us to reveal it.

Anyway, when it became apparent that Jones was made of tougher stuff, we thought 'F**k it, let's just shoot the b*****d.'

Well, if the long route doesn’t work, blaze a more efficient path

Do you call it Australia?

We don't have the death penalty in Intergalactic Penguins, we just prescribe peyote until they learn to love again <3

What a waste of a good drug on those who don't deserve mercy. Do you just give rapists peyote hoping they learn to love? Or do you lock them up and throw away the key?

I find blood eagle an inefficient use of the executioner's time. And so bad for pr~

How is it inefficient? And were you going to say it's bad for progress?

the blood eagle is unnecessarily cruel and violent, only a nation of savages would ever think of such an execution.

We are vikings.
Plus, why should we care about rapists and how cruel their fate is - especially if they raped a child.

You betcha :) No-one's beyond redemption. Incarceration is for land-dwellers! Having said that, they are given the option to leave IP - we'll freely set them up in one of our more lawless neighbours. Also, denying someone mescaline would basically be like denying them water!

Being socialist. Cutting down on economic freedoms.

K. I just wasn't sure what you were going for and what stats you were trying to raise or lower.

Also, I wish NS recognized the difference between different types of socialism. The only kind it recognizes is state socialism/state capitalism.

The game is called NationStates for a reason.

Damn it. I fell into a good anime... Monster Musume... Its a bet sexually exploit at times, but good as hell. Thank the USA for exposing Japan to radiation! ... Chernobyl didn't do that much good for Poland... Or not. We use trash cannons!
