| Historical distaste towards the death penalty in Hendalarsk was only intensified by the mass atrocities perpetrated in the course of the [[Hendalarskara Civil War]]. The last civil executions in the country consequently took place in 1926, targeting key fascist rebel leaders. The country nevertheless reserves the right to implement the death penalty during wartime for particular war-related crimes (principally espionage for a foreign power and crimes against humanity) subsequent to approval by the [[Great Chamber]], although due to Hendalarsk's largely non-aligned and non-interventionist foreign policy since the Civil War this scenario has not yet come to pass.
