|The death penalty in Cartadania was first used as a punishment for the corrupt during the overthrow of Cartadania's first government. It has been used throughout the years usually in extreme crimes and during upscale wars. While remaining legal, the Department of Justice has recommended it be phased out in favor of other methods. Progress towards abolition has stalled in recent years, however, failing to make it completely to the Senate floor due to lack of interest. Its use is still subject to strict review to prohibit unjustified execution.
