'''Human rights in Creeperopolis''' are a topic of serious concern and are considered to be one of, if not, the worst in the world, often being used to compare the human rights statuses of [[Lyoa]], [[Rakeo]], and [[Sequoyah]]. Several nations have previously condemned the human rights record of Creeperopolis and several resolutions within the [[Terraconserva Council of Nations]] have been presented regarding human rights in the country. The Creeperian government enforces Levitical law which has caused several international organizations to denounce the government as violating basic human rights.

'''Human rights in Creeperopolis''' ([[Creeperian language|Creeperian]] – [[Creeperian script|Creeperian]]: ''Ճերեճոս հփմանոս եn Ծրեեպերօպոլիս''; Creeperian – [[Iberic script|Iberic]]: ''Derechos humanos en Creeperópolis'') are a topic of serious concern and are considered to be one of, if not, the worst in the [[Terraconserva|world]], often being used to compare the human rights statuses of [[Lyoa]], [[Rakeo]], and [[Sequoyah]]. Several nations have previously condemned the human rights record of [[Creeperopolis]] and several resolutions within the [[Terraconserva Council of Nations]] have been presented regarding human rights in the country.

Foreign organizations have stated that there is virtually no freedom of speech or the press in the country, despite being legally protected by the [[Constitution of Creeperopolis|Constitution]]. The only legal media providers are those approved by the Creeperian government which show "blind loyalty" and support of the government, such as the ''[[Gaceta Creeperiano]]'' and ''[[Noticias de la'Iniciativa]]''. The only media outlet considered to not be "blindly loyal" and supportive the government is the Quebecshirite-owned ''[[Poste du Port]]'' headquartered in [[Puerto Francisco]], which itself is considered to be the most developed place in Creeperopolis. Some groups have stated that Puerto Francisco is the only place in the entire country where human rights are actually enforced. According to [[Human Rights Terraconserva]], there are around 175,000 prisoners incarcerated in prison camps across the country for political reasons and that they are subject to forced labor, torture, experimentation, and [[Capital punishment in Creeperopolis|execution]].

Foreigners of certain nationalities, specifically those from [[Greater Sacramento]], [[Malgax]], [[Sequoyah]], and [[Terranihil]], are strictly monitored by the Creeperian government as they have been considered "high-risk lawbreakers," likely for political, [[Racism in Terraconserva|racial]], and religious reasons. [[Creeperans|Natives]] of Creeperopolis have not reported many instances of human rights violations, either because the government does not mistreat its civilians that "fall in line" or because they are afraid of the consequences for speaking out against the government's actions. The most notable critic of the government which has documented the country's human rights violations is [[Orlando Hernández Alvarado]], a journalist who founded the ''[[El Faro]]'' newspaper who lives in exile in [[Barreiganca]], Greater Sacramento. He currently has a warrant for his arrest, has been charged with treason, and has been sentenced to death in absentia. The government maintains its position that criticism of its human rights record is a pretext for overthrowing the imperial government.

Human rights as a concept in [[Creeperopolis]] began to formulate during the [[First Parliament of Creeperopolis|First Parliamentary Era]] from 1565 to 1771. Prior to the establishment of the Parliament following the [[Surian Revolutions of 1565]], the notion of human rights effectively did not exist as actions which would be classified as atrocities in the present were widespread and considered normal. Events like the [[Battle of Xichūtepa]], [[Creeperian Crusade]], [[Siege of Almadinat Almuqadasa]], and [[Honduran Genocide]] witnessed massive death tolls, most of which were committed intentionally as acts of genocide and ethnocide. Even in the [[Captaincy General of the San Carlos Islands]], atrocities were committed against Native populations during the period known as "The Enslavement" from 1392 until 1477.
 
 
Such atrocities were not punished, and at times, even encouraged, to instill intimidation in any opponents of the kingdom to prevent attacks or uprisings. Such attacks and uprising were not always intimidated into now occurring, however, as several revolts occurred in southern Creeperopolis and in the San Carlos Island colony against their rule, particularly for their brutality and the atrocities they committed. Such uprisings and revolts lead to even greater and worse atrocities, which lead to more revolts, which spiraled into a cycle of revolts and massacres. Notable rebellions that were the result of atrocities, which lead to more atrocities, include the [[Deltinian War]], the [[Great Revolt of Esclaveta]], and the [[Creeperian Peasants' War]].
 
 
Massacres continued throughout the rule of [[Miguel V of Creeperopolis|Miguel V]]. Many of Creeperopolis' most infamous massacres occurred during his reign either as a part of the [[Twenty Years' War]], such as the [[Panchague Massacre]], or through the Honduran Genocide. During the Honduran Genocide, approximately 1.2 million ethnic [[Hondurans]] were killed. The genocide is considered one of "most successful" genocides, as very few people are descendants of the Hondurans that once were the majority population of the department of [[San Miguel (department)|San Miguel]] where the [[Kingdom of Honduras]] existed from 1289 until 1360.
 
 
When the First Parliament was established on 8 March 1565, one of the priorities of the [[Liberal Party (Creeperopolis)|Liberal Party]] was the establishment of laws regarding what they called "crimes against the natural state of man," later to be known as crimes against humanity, and put those accused of committing such crimes on trial. The [[Conservative Party (Creeperopolis)|Conservative Party]], however, did not want to rush to introduce such laws as they believed it would upend the structure of the [[Creeperian Armed Forces]] as many of its high ranking officials were implicated in committing various atrocities during the reign of Miguel V. Under the Prime Ministership of [[Alfonso Moreno Salinas]], the Conservatives blocked all attempts by the Liberal leader [[Álvaro Pinto Aparicio]] to pass such legislation. The Conservative [[Prime Minister of Creeperopolis|Prime Ministers]] that succeeded Moreno Salinas, [[Bernardo Funes Luque]], [[Camilo Funes Luque]], and [[Samuel Molina Tassis]], also prevented Pinto Aparicio and the Liberals from passing legislation.
 
 
[[File:Antonio-José-Cañas.jpg|thumb|left|[[Emmanuel Sánchez Andino]] is sometimes called the "Father of Creeperian Human Rights."]]
 
 
The Liberals won fifty-one seats in the [[1600 Creeperian general election|general election of 1600]], the first time the Liberal Party won an outright majority in the Parliament. Pinto Aparicio's successor as party leader, [[Emmanuel Sánchez Andino]], was sworn in as Prime Minister on 8 March 1600 and immediately introduced a bill to establish fundamental basic human rights in Creeperopolis. The bill, [[Recognition of the Fundamental and Basic Rights of All Men in Creeperopolis]], passed with a final vote of 50–49–1. Former Prime Minister Molina Tassis openly criticized the bill and stated that it set a dangerous precedent that would haunt Creeperopolis for the rest of time.
 
 
On 10 March 1600, the law established by the bill went into effect. Officially called the ''Law of Basic Rights'', what is now commonly referred to as the ''[[Sánchez Andino Laws]]'' was a series of laws that made several practices illegal and enforced guidelines and regulations to prevent such practices. Among the practices made illegal was capital punishment, but the [[Supreme Court of Creeperopolis|Supreme Court]] struck down that specific law as it was deemed unconstitutional. Other practices, however, were made illegal without any intervention from the Supreme Court, such as using child labor, unpaid labor, forced labor, physically injuring uncooperative workers, extrajudicial killings of ethnic and religious minorities, among other practices that were normal at the time.
 
 
The [[Committee for the Protection of the Rights of All Men of Creeperopolis]] was established on 17 April 1600. Its purpose was to oversee enforcement of the laws that were placed into effect and to monitor for any violations of the laws by preforming any activities that had been made illegal. The [[Court of the Rights of All Men of Creeperopolis]] was established on 1 May 1600 by the committee to put those accused of committing human rights violations on trial. The court was deemed unconstitutional by the Supreme Court on 3 May 1600, but Sánchez Andino appealed the case. Although there was no legal way to challenge the Supreme Court's decision of something being unconstitutional, Sánchez Andino managed to convince the members of the court that he was legally able to do so. On 1 June 1600, the Supreme Court heard arguments from the Liberals, in support of the court, and the Conservatives, in opposition of the court. In the landmark case [[Committee for the Protection of the Rights of All Men of Creeperopolis and Court of the Rights of All Men of Creeperopolis v. Supreme Court of Creeperopolis]], the Supreme Court ruled 8–5 that the court was in fact constitutional as it did not supersede the Supreme Court and was on the same level as lower departmental courts.
 
 
[[File:Pelayo Águilarez Suñer.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Pelayo Águilarez Suñer]] was the first ever Creeperian tried and executed for crimes against humanity.]]
 
 
On 2 May 1600, [[Pelayo Águilarez Suñer]], a retired military officer of the [[Creeperian Army]], was arrested and charged with several crimes against ethnic and religious minorities he had ordered during his service. Águilarez Suñer was 80, having served as an officer in the Army from 1537 to 1582. He was specifically charged with ordering his soldiers to burn the homes of [[Deltinians]], rape their women, castrate their men, and mutilate their children as a part of the [[First Great Persecution of Deltinian Islam]] which had been occurring since the ''[[Decree of La'Victoria]]'' made in 1326 during the Creeperian Crusade. He was put on trial on 1 June 1600 and found guilty of all four charges. He was sentenced to death by hanging and the execution was carried out on 15 July 1600. Conservatives condemned the court's decision, calling it hypocritical as the five judges on the court were all supporters of Sánchez Andino who had previously attempted to abolish capital punishment.
 
 
In 1602, Sánchez Andino and [[List of Chancellors of Greater Sacramento|Chancellor]] [[Isidora Fontes]] of [[Greater Sacramento]] met in [[Sacramento]] to discuss the formation of an international human rights organization. The International Organization of God-Given Rights was established as the first international human rights organization on 18 November 1602. The organization still exists today and is known as the [[International Organization of Human Rights]]. The primary goal of the organization was to further the human of member nations. Creeperopolis' neighboring nations, the Kingdoms of [[Atlántida (Kingdom)|Atlántida]], [[Castilliano (Kingdom)|Castilliano]], and [[Kingdom of Senvar|Senvar]] joined in 1605, 1636, and 1731, respectively.{{NoteTag|name="Membership of Atlántida in the International Organization of Human Rights"|The [[Atlántida (Kingdom)|Kingdom of Atlántida]] initially joined the [[International Organization of Human Rights]] in 1605 under the [[Prime Minister of Atlántida|Prime Ministership]] of [[José Figueroa Fernández]] of the [[Liberal Party (Atlántida)|Liberal Party]].

Castilliano withdrew membership in 1823 following the [[1823 Castillianan coup d'état|coup d'état]] staged by [[Maximiliano Saelices Dávalos]] of the [[National Pro-Fatherland Front]] and the [[Castillianan Army]], but Castilliano rejoined the organization in 1846 under [[Bernabé Sarmiento Cambeiro]] and the [[Party for Democratic Reconciliation]]. Castilliano's membership ceased when it was [[1949 Castillianan Annexation Referendum|annexed]] to [[Creeperopolis]] in 1949.}}{{NoteTag|name="Membership of Senvar in the International Organization of Human Rights"|The [[Kingdom of Senvar]] initially joined the [[International Organization of Human Rights]] in 1731 under the [[Prime Minister of Senvar|Prime Ministership]] of [[Gustav Merkel]] of the [[Senvarian Constitutionalist Party]].

[[File:General Francisco Morazán.JPG|thumb|left|[[Orlando Moreno Hidalgo]] is considered the greatest advocator of human rights in Creeperian history.]]
 
 
[[Orlando Moreno Hidalgo]] became Prime Minister of Creeperopolis on 8 March 1725 following the retirement of [[Salvador Cerén Collazo]]. The Liberals won seventy-five seats in the [[1725 Creeperian general election|general election of 1725]], the largest majority by a single party in a multiparty system in Creeperian history. He is considered to be the greatest advocator of human rights in Creeperian history, famously pleading with a court to spare the life of a man who murdered his father in 1710 over a payment dispute. During his Prime Ministership, Moreno Hidalgo established a secular marriage, legalized homosexuality, abolished capital punishment, allowed women to vote, and implemented taxes on the Catholic Church. He was later criticized by Conservatives for executing King [[Carlos III of Creeperopolis|Carlos III]] in 1729 despite having already abolished the death penalty and was also criticized by Liberals for not legalizing same sex marriage.
 
 
In 1744, Moreno Hidalgo wrote a letter to [[Francisco López Yagüe]], his subordinate and later successor as Prime Minister, stating:
 
 
{{quote|I have done many things for the people of the country. I have given them freedom to marry outside of the Church. I have given them the ability to love whomever they wish. I have saved them from the penalty of death. I have allowed the women to be able to vote for their representatives in government. I have done many things for the people, yet many of them still wish to oppose me and my government. Enough people still vote for our party to keep us in office so I can still improve the lives of the people, but I don't know how much longer this trend can continue; there aren't many more things I can give the people to keep them happy and content with my governance.|Prime Minister [[Orlando Moreno Hidalgo]], 28 February 1744}}
 
 
Moreno Hidalgo later committed suicide by hanging himself in his own home on 1 November 1749, one day before a [[1749 Vote of No Confidence in the Government of Orlando Moreno Hidalgo|vote of no confidence]] would have been voted on due to his selling of the San Carlos Islands to [[Xusma]] in what has since been historically known as the [[Guazatancillo Affair]]. Despite this controversy that was despised and opposed by both Conservatives and Liberals alike, the Liberals continued to champion Moreno Hidalgo as a forward thinker and a champion of human rights in not only Creeperopolis, but also across all [[Sur]], as Creeperopolis was considered to be the most stable and most comfortable democracy on the continent at the time.
 
 
Following the death of Moreno Hidalgo, the status of human rights in Creeperopolis began to slip. The Liberals were defeated by the Conservatives in the [[1750 Creeperian general election|general election of 1750]] for the first time since 1690. [[Salvador Funes Tafalla]], who had been a fierce rival to Moreno Hidalgo during his Prime Ministership, undid many of Moreno Hidalgo's reforms, outlawing homosexuality, placing tax exemptions on the Catholic Church, and reinstating the death penalty. Liberals were growing concerned with Funes Tafalla's Prime Ministership and feared that he would undo more and more reforms, but the Liberals regained the Prime Ministership in 1765. López Yagüe died unexpectedly in office in 1766 before many reforms were reinstated, and he was succeeded by [[Fernando Moreno Juderías]], a son of Moreno Hidalgo. During his Prime Ministership, he was only able to legalize homosexuality for a second time, failing to reinstate taxes on the Church and prohibit the death penalty. The Liberals won the [[1770 Creeperian general election|general election of 1770]], but on 4 July 1771, King [[Manuel III of Creeperopolis|Manuel III]] staged a [[Revolution of Restoration|self coup]] and had the [[Creeperian Imperial Guard]] storm the Parliament and had everyone arrested. All the Conservatives were set free, but all the Liberals, including Moreno Juderías, were executed by firing squad inside the building. Manuel III overthrew the Parliament and returned the monarchy to absolutism.
 
 
=== Status of human rights during the restoration of the absolute monarchy ===
 
 
Following the abolition of the Parliament, Manuel III had all future elections cancelled, effectively erasing the legacy of the Parliament and democracy in Creeperopolis. Both the Conservative and Liberal parties were dissolved and parliamentary districts were abolished. Several former Conservative politicians and representatives were given positions in Manuel III's government, and their political ideologies heavily influenced Manuel III's reign. On 12 October 1771, Creeperopolis announced its departure from the International Organization of Human Rights stating that "human rights are not a universal thing" and that the notion of human rights is a trick of [[Baphomet]], a demon who Creeperans mistakenly, but often intentionally, associate with the Islamic Prophet [[Muhammad]].
 
 
Manuel III died on 12 November 1783 and his death began a succession crisis which began the [[War of the Creeperian Succession]], sought between the armies of [[Salvador III of Creeperopolis|Salvador III]] and [[Manuel IV of Creeperopolis|Manuel IV]], both of whom claimed to be the rightful successor. Both sides executed their prisoners for sedition against their respective monarch. Salvador III was killed in the [[Battle of Denshire (1790)|Battle of Denshire]] on 6 July 1790, ending the war and solidifying Manuel IV's claim on the throne.

== Enforcement of Levitical law ==
 
 
The Creeperian government enforces several laws which are derived from the Book of Leviticus of the [[Creeperian Catholic Bible]]. The Book of Leviticus is the third book of the Creeperian Catholic Bible and is composed of various laws and rituals and practices that God ordered Moses and His people to follow. Despite the authorship of the book being unknown and heavily debated, the Creeperian government upholds that the Book of Leviticus was written by Moses himself and that he was instructed directly by God on what to write down for humanity to follow and obey.
 
 
The Book of Leviticus contains 243 laws and each one is somehow built into the Creeperian legal system. Other laws implemented in the Creeperian legal system include laws from the Books of Genesis, Exodus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy, as well as the Ten Commandments and the teachings of [[Yeshua|Jesús Cristo]], the founder of [[Christianity]] and also traditionally the founder of the Creeperian Catholic Church.

Organized [[Crime in Creeperopolis|crime]] in Creeperopolis is a serious problem. Efforts to deal with this phenomenon have been insufficient due to criminal resistance, ineffective government policies, and rampant government corruption. There are an estimated 250,000 gang members at large in Creeperopolis; another 350,000 are in prison. The best-known gang, called maras in colloquial Creeperian Spanish, is Mara Salvatrucha. Maras are one of the most despised groups in Creeperopolis, with government forces, rebel forces, and the civilian population being nominally opposed to mara power and influence.
 
 
The [[List of Countries by Intentional Homicide Rate|national murder rate]] of Creeperopolis was 23.12 murders per 100,000 people in the year 2019. That year, 123,021 people were murdered.{{NoteTag|name="Murder rate"|The figure of 123,021 murders in 2019 does not include people who were killed as a result of warfare or executions in the country.}} In other parts of the country, the murder rate is lower, such as in the north and east, but in other parts, such as the south and west, the murder rate is generally higher. The murder rate in Creeperopolis is the highest in the world, with the second highest national murder rate in 2019 being [[Terranihil]] which only had a rate of 2.61 murders per 100,000 people or 1,407 total murders. The second highest count in 2019 was [[Malgax]] which recorded 3,789 murders for a murder rate of 1.83 murders per 100,000 people.

Gangs contribute to the generally high levels of social violence in Creeperopolis. They engage in various serious criminal acts which terrorize and paralyze society. Homicide and extortion are the most publicized crimes. There are different forms of violence constructed in Creeperopolis such as political, gender, and structural violence. Women and children have been particular targets of violence, torture, and abuse.
 
 
Creeperian young men decide to join a gang for several reasons. Sometimes this is understood as a choice, but other motivations include feeling neglected and abandoned by family or feeling they don't belong anywhere except where violence occurs. Experts argue that general risk factors associated with gang membership include: poverty, family disintegration or separation, neglect, violent domestic environments, unemployment, scarcity of educational and developmental opportunities, and family membership in gangs. The presence of one or more of these factors may compel an adolescent or child to turn to gangs in hope of finding a familial environment, social status, and economic opportunities. These young people are often unable to find respect or validation in other forms, such as within families, community, work, or schools, and turn to violence to gain respect on the streets. Some of these young people grew up  as the children of war survivors and experienced gang involvement there.
 
 
The prevalence of gangs has allowed the Creeperian murder rate to consistently remain high. During the violent Creeperian Civil War, children joined the fighting for many reasons; some were kidnapped and forced into the armies, some others joined for the economic benefits while the country struggled through high rates of poverty. Family members had been killed or had fled the country, leaving the children alone with few other options other than joining the war effort. Even those who were not soldiers witnessed the brutal violence. Exposure to these traumatic events and the dislocation of families caused damaging psychological side effects from these traumatic exposures. Many of these children grew up and began to form the first Creeperian criminal gangs in the late-1940s and 1950s.
 
 
[[File:Marasalvatrucha13.png|thumb|left|A [[Mara Salvatrucha]] gang member with tattoo of the gang name on his back.]]
 
 
Gang members are "jumped in," an initiation process through which they have to prove their loyalty by committing criminal acts such as murder, theft, or violence. This can also involve being beaten by several other gang members at once, and female recruits often must choose between engaging in sexual acts with a large number of members, or be beaten. Youth gangs are a major source of concern for Creeperian society. Though gangs are primarily male-dominated, young women in Creeperopolis are also involved. Being initiated into the gangs for young women often involves group beatings, like it does for males, but can also involve sexual assault by several of the male gang members.
 
 
The Creeperian government has a zero tolerance policy on gang membership, a strategy that has been implemented as a result of the Mara War. The strategy calls for "the immediate imprisonment of a gang member simply for having gang-related tattoos or flashing gang signs in public," and sometimes the outright execution of gang members. Since the conclusion of the Creeperian Civil War in 1949, several death squads have actively targeted criminal gangs. The extrajudicial violence and murders committed by the death squads generally go ignored by the Creeperian government.
 
 
In 1949, the Creeperian government established the [[Creeperian National Military Tribunal]] to serve as the highest court of the nation, replacing the [[High Court of Creeperopolis]] which was established during the Second Parliamentary Era. The military tribunal was established to try those involved in the ''De-Catholization'' of the Creeperian Civil War. Following the trials, the military tribunal remained in existence and was effectively moved from military control to civilian control, now being composed of the eight [[Ministers of Creeperopolis]] and the [[List of Salvadoran Monarchs|Grand Prince of Creeperopolis]].{{NoteTag|name="Military tribunal composition"|The [[Creeperian National Military Tribunal]] is composed of nine people: The [[Minister of Defense of Creeperopolis|Minister of Defense]], the [[Minister of Internal Affairs of Creeperopolis|Minister of Internal Affairs]], the [[Minister of External Affairs of Creeperopolis|Minister of External Affairs]], the [[Minister of Law Enforcement of Creeperopolis|Minister of Law Enforcement]], the [[Minister of Intelligence of Creeperopolis|Minister of Intelligence]], the [[Minister of the Treasury of Creeperopolis|Minister of the Treasury]], the [[Minister of Labor of Creeperopolis|Minister of Labor]], the [[Minister of Education of Creeperopolis|Minister of Education]], the [[Minister of Transportation of Creeperopolis|Minister of Transportation]], and the [[List of Salvadoran Monarchs|Grand Prince of Creeperopolis]]. Since 1933, the Minister of Defense and the Minister of Intelligence have been the same person and sometimes the ministries are considered to be the same.}}
 
 
=== Police brutality and violence ===
 
 
{{see also|Creeperian National Police}}
 
 
The [[Creeperian National Police]] (PNC), the national police force of Creeperopolis, has been accused of frequently violating basic human rights and being responsible for violence in the country. The [[Ministry of Law Enforcement of Creeperopolis|Ministry of Law Enforcement]], which administers the Creeperian National Police, denies such accusations as "anti-Creeperian and pro-Mara propaganda," blaming all the violence on Creeperian criminal gangs and rebel groups. The Ministry of Law Enforcement also administers the [[Salvadoran National Police]] (PNS) in El Salvador and the [[National Police of the Papal State]] (PNEP) in the State of the Church, both of which are met with similar accusations.
 
 
[[File:Fuerza del Estado Michoacán.jpg|thumb|right|Militarized [[Creeperian National Police]] officers in [[San Pedro (city)|San Pedro]] in 2013.]]
 
 
The Creeperian National Police is known to use torture as a means of interrogation of suspects and has frequently been ordered to execute people immediately after an arrest. Several events involving the Creeperian National Police have become infamous across the country, including the [[2011 Alturas El Burro shootout and riot|2001]] and [[2011 Alturas El Burro shootout]]s, [[Operation Pupusa]], and the [[2016 Puerto Francisco shootout]].<ref name="morin 2016">{{cite web|url=https://lcnwiki.xyz/index.php?title=File:Posteduportmay2016.png|title=Fusillade de Gang au nord de Port François|trans-title=Gang Shootout North of Puerto Francisco|date=16 May 2016|access-date=27 February 2021|publisher=[[Poste du Port]]|location=[[Puerto Francisco]], [[Creeperopolis]]|last=Morin|first=Lisa|language=[[Quebecshirite Language|Quebecshirite]]|page=1}}</ref> Each incident resulted in several deaths.<ref name="morin 2016" />
 
 
The Creeperian National Police has been significantly been militarized since the 1980s, making them nearly indistinguishable from the regular Army. A significant reason for such militarization is the militarization of the criminal gangs of Creeperopolis which have gained access to many automatic weapons which were a byproduct of the Creeperian Civil War. The [[Illegal Drug Trade in Creeperopolis|illegal drug trade]] has also motivated criminal gangs to militarize to defend their trade from the police and other criminal gangs to the point that gangs effectively function as paramilitary forces.
 
 
The most infamous instance of police brutality in Creeperopolis was the events that transpired during and after the [[Battle of Tuxtla Martínez-Panachor]] from 3 May to 16 May 1988.<ref name=unknown7>Unknown 2004, p. 7</ref> Several thousand prisoners, mostly members of Mara Salvatrucha, began a prison riot and attempted to escape the facility at the [[Tuxtla Martínez-Panachor Maximum Correctional Facility]].<ref name=unknown7 /> During the escape attempt, the prison's guards, which were technically solely Army soldiers but labelled as being under the joint jurisdiction of the Ministries of Defense and Law Enforcement, fired live ammunition at the rioting and escaping prisoners.<ref name=unknown7 /> During the riot and prison escape, which is commonly called a battle, 553 people were killed.<ref name=unknown7 /> Following the pacification of the prison, 2,481 prisoners were executed for their role in the riot and a six month lockdown was implemented.<ref name=unknown7 /> News of the event went mostly suppressed until its declassification in a 2004 ''National Intelligence Directorate'' document.<ref name=unknown7 />
 
 
=== Use of torture ===
 
 
The Creeperian government approves of the use of torture in interrogation and as a form of punishment prior to execution.
 
 
The [[Tuxtla Martínez-Panachor Maximum Correctional Facility]] is notorious for its poor human rights record, especially since it is a prison camp that houses Creeperopolis' worst criminals. Torture is reported to commonly occur at the prison and it has been confirmed on several occasions. In Creeperopolis, pedophilia and any crime against a child are punished by death, and all of the country's convicted pedophiles and those who committed crimes against children are sent to the Tuxtla Martínez-Panachor Maximum Correctional Facility. During an interview with the ''[[Gaceta Creeperiano]]'' in 2012, Brigadier [[Onésimo Ledesma Soriano]], the Director of the prison, described the process such an individual goes through in the prison.
 
 
{{quote|(Question: It is known that all pedophiles are sent to TMP after they are arrested and pedophilia is a capital crime according to the Constitution. What exactly happens to them when they are sent to TMP?)<br /><br />We have the pedophile sent here late at night, around midnight. When the subhuman arrives, it is a subhuman because it officially loses personhood when it commits the act, we send it to a dark room under the administration block and it is left in darkness and nothingness, hands and feet tied up, no food and no water, to mess with its mental state, for about two hours. After the two hours, we come in and dimly light the room. If it's asleep, we whip it until it wakes up, but if it's awake, we whip it anyway to let it know we're here. After that, we begin, around, 30 minutes of waterboarding, informing it that this is the tamest of the punishments it will endure for its crime.
 
 
Next, since the poor thing hasn't had anything to eat all day and must be starving, we give it its first meal of the day, but first we need to acquire the meal. The thing is stripped and forcibly castrated. Our preferred method is a slow slicing from the bottom up with a rusty machete to ensure it suffers as much as possible for the crime it committed with its reproductive system, not before crushing and stomping on it of course; it doesn't deserve to have a reproductive system anymore. So now, we have its dinner. We feed it to it since it's still tied up. If it refuses to eat up after 10 minutes, we cut off one finger. Another ten minutes, another finger, and repeat. After we are out of fingers, we move to toes. If it still refuses to eat, we blend its meal and add feces and urine from the prisoners to the blend and forcibly make it drink up. However, if it does eat, we cut off the fingers and toes quickly instead of slowly as a reward for being cooperative. Now that dinner is over, the thing has been fed and can never commit such an abomination ever again.
 
 
Next, we leave the thing alone until 6am when we take a roll call of the prison. We announce to the prisoners their new guest and inform the population of its crime, and we let it into the prison population. If it dies, it dies, oh well. Even Mara Salvatrucha despises these subhumans. You may say that it is escaping our justice, but the maras are in here for a reason. When the kill these things, the killings are brutal and torturous. I remember several times seeing these things skinned and even sometimes decapitated. Like, they have no access to anything sharp, so I'm genuinely impressed the gangs manage to decapitate these things. Perhaps they use their shoelaces to good effect, who knows. Sometimes they even let it survive, knowing that it will endure more pain if we torture it. Anyway, if it survives until noon rolecall, it is removed from the population and returns to the dark room. It is again tied up and stripped and we slowly pull its arms and legs apart, while at the same time dropping burning coal onto its body to induce severe burns while continuing to whip it. As part of our mental torture, we let spiders and cockroaches and ants crawl all over it. Don't worry, none are venomous. We don't want the subhuman to escape from a bite to die of poison; it needs to suffer. When the joints in its arms and legs are broken, we begin to slowly skin its feet and work up until the knees. At the same time, we take sledgehammers and work away at breaking its femurs. Then we pull out teeth and wax off any hair left on its body.
 
 
Next, its skinless feet are put on a grill to burn and we cut off the ears and nose. If it survives all of that, and believe me, unfortunate souls have survived that torment, we bring it to the prison yard during yard time at around 4pm and announce to the prisoners that the subhuman survived and will be executed in the yard. It is perhaps the only time prisoners and guards are side by side in agreement that justice is being served. We nail it to an upside down cross and set it on fire. Sometimes its broken joints give way and it falls to the ground, sometimes its joints don't give way and it stays there. Either way, it burns alive and it is then up to God to decide if it has truly repented for its crime and will regain its personhood or if it will be eternally damned. I have overseen over 5,000 such executions. I do not regret a single one.|Onésimo Ledesma Soriano, 2012}}
 
 
The response from Ledesma Soriano was approved by the Creeperian government. The government notes that a notable decrease in arrests of pedophiles was reported in the following 2 years, possibly as a fear of what would happen to them for the crime they would have been convicted of.
 
 
The Creeperian government has been confirmed to have used the following methods of torture:

* Beatings

=== Use of eugenics and human experimentation ===
 
 
{{see|Project Atlácatl}}
 
 
From 1933 until 1980, the Creeperian government official endorsed the use of eugenics to "improve the superiority of the Creeperian race" and to justify neglect of several racial minorities in Creeperopolis, particularly Deltinians and Senvarians. [[Miguel Unamuno Jugo]], a notable poet and philosopher of the Second Parliamentary Era, was an overt advocate of eugenics, writing ''[[A Case for Creeperian Supremacy]]'' in 1916. Unamuno Jugo was executed by the National Council during the civil war in 1936, but his ideas and beliefs in ''A Case for Creeperian Supremacy'' were put into effect by the Creeperian government in 1933. Following the civil war, the policies established were reinforced and Deltinians and Senvarians were prohibited from marrying Creeperans and having children with Creeperans. People with physical and mental disabilities and those with low IQ scores were also barred from marrying and having children. The policies were officially abolished in 1980, but the policies seem to continue being enforced as intermarrying is still very rare.
 
 
[[File:Proyecto Atlacatl de 1980 a 2000 (Project Atlacatl of 1980 to 2000) Page 6 (Censored) in Creeperian Spanish.png|thumb|right|Declassified document of [[Project Atlácatl]].]]
 
 
In 1979, the ''National Intelligence Directorate'' began planning [[Project Atlácatl]], a series of human experiments conducted on criminals, mostly gang members of Mara Salvatrucha. They were considered subhumans which technically made the experiments legal according to the Creeperian legal system.<ref name=unknown5>Unknown 2004, p. 5</ref> Officially, the experiments were labeled as "tactical scientific research" with the goal of "advancing knowledge in science," while in reality, the experiments were highly likely pseudoscientific with no basis in science that likely had the primary goal of terrorizing and intimidating the gang members of Mara Salvatrucha who were involved in the Mara War. The project began in 1980, one year after the beginning of the Mara War in 1979.<ref name=unknown6>Unknown 2004, p. 6</ref> Project Atlácatl continued throughout the reigns of Emperors Adolfo V and Romero III, likely with their full knowledge of its existence. The project was formulated under the tenure of Cabañeras Videla when he was Minister of Defense and the Minister of Intelligence. The project was curtailed in 1999 with the ascension of Emperor Alfonso VI to the throne and was later halted on 1 January 2000 as a result of the controversial ceasefire agreed to by Alfonso VI and Mara Salvatrucha leadership.<ref name=unknown10>Unknown 2004, p. 10</ref>
 
 
The project very likely engaged in several activities that would be considered extremely illegal in most jurisdictions, but according to the Creeperian government, all activities the project likely was involved in would have been deemed completely legal according to the Creeperian Constitution and other Creeperian national and departmental laws due to the wording of gang members as "subhuman." Although it is unknown what experiments the project engaged in as the pages were redacted, it his highly likely the project experimented with the usage of chemicals, electroshock therapy, hypnosis, sensory deprivation, isolation, verbal and sexual abuse, forced drug administration, as well as other forms of torture. During the twenty years the project was active, the project's experiments likely were undertaken at several colleges and universities, hospitals, and prisons.
 
 
Most of the history of Project Atlácatl is extremely vague as very little information aside from the existence of the project and what it generally did are known. It likely occurred at the Tuxtla Martínez-Panachor Maximum Correctional Facility as the Battle of Tuxtla Martínez-Panachor of 1988 was mentioned in the document.<ref name=unknown7 /> The project continued until 1999 when it was curtailed and later ended in 2000 with the cease fire agreed to between Mara Salvatrucha and Emperor Alfonso VI.<ref name=unknown22>Unknown 2004, p. 22</ref> The existence of Project Atlácatl was declassified in 2004 with the approval of Emperor Alexander II.<ref name=unknown22 /> The exact experiments that were conducted during Project Atlácatl can never be certain due to the secretive nature of the Creeperian government. It is likely that a section on the experiments conducted exists on the declassified document but it has been redacted if it is. Speculations have been made on the type of experiments that occurred from 1980 to 2000. It his highly likely the project experimented with the usage of chemicals, electroshock therapy, hypnosis, sensory deprivation, isolation, verbal and sexual abuse, forced drug administration, as well as other forms of torture. The total amount of fatalities that occurred during Project Atlácatl can never be certain due to the secretive nature of the Creeperian government. It is likely that a section on the fatalities exists on the declassified document but it has been redacted if it is.
 
 
=== Detention camps ===
 
 
The Creeperian government operates eight locations across the country as detention camps for gang members and political prisoners. Unlike regular prisons, the inmates are subject to torture and forced labor. Four are jointly operated my military and civilian administration, three are solely operated by the military, and one is solely operated by civilians.

{{main|Capital punishment in Creeperopolis}}
 
 
Capital punsihment is a legal penalty in Creeperopolis for certain capital crimes. Around 800–1,000 executions occur in Creeperopolis every year on average for crimes ranging from murder to sorcery to apostasy to pedophilia. Creeperopolis executes the most people [[Capital Punishment by Country|compared to any other country on Terraconserva]].

{{Anti-Malgan sentiment}}
 
 
Creeperopolis does not officially enforce anti-Malgan laws and policies, but there is a heavy [[Anti-Malgan sentiment|anti-Malgan sentiment]] and stigma in the government and among the general populaiton. Prior to 2019, very little anti-Malgan sentiment existed in the country, with the only traces of such being among government officials and businessmen who opposed [[Malgax]] to gain more support of Quebecshire. In 2019, however, the [[Permanent Mission of Malgax to the Terraconserva Council of Nations|Permanent Mission of Malgax]] to the [[Terraconserva Council of Nations]] proposed [[TCN Resolution 002|Terraconserva Council of Nations Resolution 002]] which would condemn the Creeperian government and implement sanctions against the country.<ref name="TCN Resolution 002" /> The resolution was vetoed by Quebecshire, but the Creeperian government heavily opposed Malgax for introducing the resolution in the first place. Anti-Malgan propaganda was spread across the country resulting in a significant majority of the country having anti-Malgan positions.

The use of the [[Racism in Terraconserva|racial slur]] "Malger" significantly grew in usage following the failure of the resolution. During the first debate of the [[November 2020 Salvadoran presidential election]] between [[Orlando Pareja Palau]] and [[Santiago Morales Cabrera]], the world "Malger" was said a total of 69 times while "Squg," another racial slur which attacked Sequoyans, was said around 40 times.<ref name="Donnet, Florent">{{cite web|url=https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=1445146|author=Donnet, Florent|title=L'élection Salvadorienne et ses Conséquences pour le Quebecshire et Terraconserva|trans-title=The Salvadoran Election and its Consequences for Quebecshire and Terraconserva|publisher=[[Quebecshirite Broadcasting Corporation]]|location=[[Quebecshire City]], [[Quebecshire]]|language=[[Quebecshirite Language|Quebecshirite]]|access-date=9 February 2021|date=12 October 2020}}</ref> The use of such racial slurs was opposed by international groups, including the [[Liberal Union (Gagium)|Liberal Union]] of [[Gagium]] stating the "overt racism" of the debate and stated that it would continue to fight racism "abroad and at home."
 
 
Anti-Malgan sentiment has also manifested on online Creeperian websites or where Creeperans are present on websites. For example, Creeperian users on [[Shichan]], an anonymous Quebecshirite imageboard website, commonly use Malgan racial slurs in their posts. On [[Leerlo]], particularly the subleerlo [[L/SecoyaChiste|l/SecoyaChiste]], Malgan racial slurs are used in almost every post. The downvote button of the subleerlo is also the Emblem of Malgax.

{{see also|Creeperian-Deltinian Wars}}
 
 
Ethnic violence and tensions between Creeperans and [[Deltinians]] have been present since the Deltinians [[Deltinian-Creeperian War|invaded and conquered]] the [[Old Kingdom of Creeperopolis]] in 745AD. Several wars between Deltinians and Creeperans have occurred since then collectively known as the [[Creeperian-Deltinian Wars]]. The first war waged by Creeperans against the Deltinians since the Deltinian-Creeperian War of 745AD was [[Pelayo's War]] which lasted four years from 845AD to 849AD where [[Fydl I of Rabadsun|Fydl I]] (known as Fidel I in Creeperian Spanish), the [[Emir of Rabadsun|Emir]] of [[Emirate of Rabadsun|Rabadsun]], the state established by the Deltinians following the invasion, assisted [[Pelayo Martínez de Córdoba, Count of Extremadura|Pelayo Martínez de Córdoba]] in combatting the Deltinians to be allowed to live in Rabadsun. A [[845AD Rabadsuni riot|riot]] erupted in the city of [[Rabadsun (city)|Rabadsun]] in 845AD which sparked the war when Deltinians moved to suppress the riot. The war ended in a Creeperian/Rabadsuni victory and Martínez de Córdoba was given the title of [[Count of Extremadura]], beginning the rivalry for power and influence between the [[House of Martínez]] and the [[Caliphate of Deltino]].

During the Creeperian Crusade, Creeperans and Deltinians came into direct political and religious conflict. King [[Alfonso I of Creeperopolis]] declared independence for the Emirate of Rabadsun following the decision made by the Creeperian Catholic Church at the [[Second Council of Rabadsun]] which was summoned as a result of the ''[[One-Religion Decree]]'' issued by Caliph [[Suleiman III of Deltino]]. Suleiman III declared a jihad against the Creeperans and Alfonso I declared a crusade against the Deltinians. During the Creeperian Crusade, both sides committed various atrocities and massacres against each other, with the massacres being committed mostly on ethnic and religious grounds.
 
 
The first religious massacre of the Creeperian Crusade was the massacre of Alqarya, the modern day town of [[Ciudad de los'Mártires]]. In the massacre, around 100 to 200 Creeperans were hanged, beheaded, crucified, or burned alive for being Creeperian Catholic. The martyrs are known as the [[Martyrs of Alqarya]] and were killed on 4 April 1231. In response, Alfonso I ordered the immediate execution of all Deltinian prisoners in Creeperian custody, resulting in 89 executions via crucifixion on 18 April 1231. He established the [[Creeperian Inquisition]], officially known as the Tribunal of the Holy Office of the Inquisition, to "cleanse" his domain of [[Deltinian Islam]]. Alfonso I also initiated the ''[[De-Arabization]]'' which removed any Arabic influences from Creeperian society. As an indirect result, Deltinians were targeted for their name and their customs and were often beat to death by gangs of Creeperian peasants and soldiers.
 
 
In the [[People's Crusade]], the peasant crusaders killed around 1,000 Deltinians and Muslims, but all 7,000 of the peasant crusaders were eventually killed by Deltinian forces under [[Fawz al-Sharif]]. During the subsequent [[Monarch's Crusade]], Alfonso I's soldiers [[Al Madiq massacre|massacred]] the inhabitants of [[Ciudad de Pedro|Al Madiq]], where the peasant crusaders attempted a siege to capture the city. Other massacres in the Monarch's Crusade include the [[Qena Massacre|massacre]] of [[Qena]], the [[Sohaq Massacre|massacre]] of [[San Emmanuel, San Romero|Sohaq]], and the [[Asyut Massacre|massacre]] of [[San Carlos, San Romero|Asyut]].
 
 
In 1275, the Kingdom of Castilliano faced an invasion from Deltinian forces, the second since the [[Castillianan-Deltinian War]] of 1254 to 1255. In what has been subsequently called the [[Great Castillianan War]], Deltinian forces under [[Abdul al-Mustasim]] invaded Castilliano with the goal of total conquest and vassalization. On 4 May 1276, Castillianan forces under [[Ramón Ureña Parejas]] engaged al-Mustasim's army, and according to legend and tradition, Jesús' disciple and apostle James, known as Santiago, appeared and fought the Deltinians on the side of the Castillianans. The apparition of [[Santiago Matadeltinianos]] at the [[Battle of Sahagún]] has become a legendary topic and gave the Creeperans and Castillianans justification in continuing their crusade, now believing that killing Deltinians was acceptable and sanctioned by God.
 
 
The historicity of the battle has been brought into question in recent times. According to [[Johnathan Mbagindu]], a Lyoan history professor at [[William Ntihura University]] in [[Mwezi]], [[Lyoa]]:
 
 
{{quote|It’s likely that the battle did occur; however, the legitimacy of the apparition is likely to be folk legend passed down from generation to generation. We see similar things here in Lyoan history, with the [[Final War of Kindua]], when the [[Lakku people|Lakku]] soldiers were alleged to be granted powers from the old Lyoan gods of that era that assisted in their conquest of [[Kindua]]. The battle is the only logical way to explain al-Mustasim’s army disappearing; however, any sort of divine intervention is likely legend.|[[Johnathan Mbagindu]], 2011<ref name=mbagindu54>Mbagindu 2011, p. 54</ref>}}
 
 
According to Dr. [[Isaac Droz]], a Quebecshirite history professor at the [[University of Orléans]] in [[Orléans]], [[Quebecshire]]:
 
 
{{quote|The Battle of Sahagún, a topic I am frequently questioned about, is one of the great fascinations of history, especially in Sur. It is my opinion that the battle did occur, as it is the most probable and realistic explanation for the vanishing of the forces of al-Mustasim. Whether the evidence of this was removed delibrately, destroyed later on, or otherwise, I believe the battle must have occured in some form. The evidence is lacking to give us any information about the battle, but it seems to be the most logical piece to the puzzle of the timeline of the Creeperian Crusades.
 
 
As for the apparition, I find no scenario in which its existence could be corroborated nor likely. It was likely a legend started by Ramón Ureña Parejas or his men to increase the legitimacy of their cause in the eyes of all those who would listen, and to encourage morale within the Castillianan and other Catholic ranks. Of this belief, I am extremely confident.|Dr. [[Isaac Droz]], 2018<ref name=droz11>Droz 2018, p. 1</ref>}}

{{quote|In the Battle of Sahagún, while lacking much evidence, it still seems evident that the battle did occur which coerces me to believing this is the reason behind the vanishing of al-Mustasim's forces.
 
 
However, while I and many of my colleagues believe in the divine power of God, the apparition seems more as folklore rather than truth as the means to bolster morale within the Castillianan forces and Ramón Ureña Parejas.|[[Vassili Azhikelyamov]], 2010<ref name=azhikelyamov1>Azhikelyamov 2010, p. 1</ref>}}
 
 
According to [[Jakop Etli]], a Terranilian history professor at the [[University of Guršaun]] in [[Guršaun]], [[Terranihil]]:
 
 
{{quote|Almost no evidence exists to corroborate the Battle of Sahagún's occurrence. The entire event is likely a myth that began as propaganda against the Deltinians. Furthermore, the fictitious story of the supernatural apparition of Saint Santiago during battle is additional affirmation that the war is folklore.

[[File:Frankfurt Main Fettmilch-Aufstand.jpg|thumb|left|A depiction of the [[1620 Abdan race riot]].]]
 
 
In the [[1620 Creeperian general election|general election of 1620]], Liberal [[Fidel Moreno Dávalos]] was reelected as Prime Minister of Creeperopolis, who became Prime Minister following the death of [[Orlando González Leoz]] in 1618. During the election, [[Badri al-Morad]] became the first ethnic Deltinian member of Parliament. His election outraged many Creeperans who held anti-Deltinian views. When he was sworn in as a member of Parliament on 8 March 1620, a [[1620 Abdan race riot|riot]] began in his home district of [[San Pablo, Abdan|San Pablo]], [[Abdan (department)|Abdan]]. He returned to the city in April 1620 and attempted to pacify the riot, but the angry mob attacked him and lynched him in the city's town square. His body was paraded around the city and mass killings of Deltinians occurred.
 
 
Moreno Dávalos denounced the violence and murder of the member of Parliament and sent in the Army to crush the riot. The Army arrived in June 1620 and crushed the riot by force. The government reported 121 rioters dead and 20 soldiers dead, with 519 more rioters being arrested. The city remained under military occupation until 1622. Each of the 519 rioters arrested were put on trial for the death of al-Morad and inciting massacres against Deltinians in the city, of which 1,418 were killed from March to June 1620. Of the 519, 67 were sentenced to death, 211 were sentenced to life imprisonment, 144 were sentenced to varying non-life prison sentences, 96 were acquitted, and 1 was left with no decision as he died before a verdict was given. Of the 67 sentenced to death, 58 were executed on 1 January 1623, 1 died in captivity before execution, and the remaining 8 had their sentences commuted to life imprisonment. The riot and mass killing of Deltinians was the worst since the end of the persecution of 1326 to 1600.

[[Anti-Atheism in Creeperopolis|Anti-Atheism]] (''Antiateísmo'') is an enforced policy in Creeperopolis. Creeperian Anti-Atheism is an ideology and a political movement against Atheism, as a theory and more specifically as it presented itself during the Second Parliamentary Era and the [[Creeperian Civil War]]. Organized Anti-Atheism developed properly during the Creeperian Civil War with rise of the [[National Council for Peace and Order]], nicknamed the ''Miguelists''. Anti-Atheism was one of the core elements of [[Romerism]] and the [[Catholic Imperial Restoration Council]], nicknamed the ''Romerists''.
 
 
The first organization which was specifically dedicated to opposing Atheism was the Catholic Imperial Restoration Council which fought in the Creeperian Civil War starting in 1933 against the recently established National Council for Peace and Order. The Romerist movement was militarily supported by several allied foreign governments which represented the first instance of Anti-Atheism as a government policy in Creeperopolis. The Romerists defeated the Miguelists and Creeperopolis was stabilized in 1949. Following the civil war, the [[Creeperian Initiative]] was established with Anti-Atheism as one of its core ideologies. The Creeperian government continues to impose Anti-Atheist policies. In Creeperopolis, practicing Atheism is punishable by the death penalty.

[[File:CALLE PARIS LONDRES 3.jpg|thumb|right|''[[Fallen Roses (memorial)|Fallen Roses]]'', a memorial in [[Asr El Ziqara]], [[Greater Sacramento]], created in 2001 to respect and remember several LGBT rights activists killed in Creeperopolis by the government. New names are added to the memorial every year.]]
 
 
All homosexual and transgender behaviors in Creeperopolis are illegal, making [[LGBT rights in Creeperopolis]] the worst in the world. As such, Creeperopolis does not recognize same-sex marriage, domestic partnerships, or civil unions in any capacity. The criminal penalties against homosexuality and cross-dressing are regularly and strictly enforced against all people in Creeperopolis. The Creeperian government also views cross-dressing and being transgender as being prohibited under Catholic jurisprudence, and is therefore illegal. Criminal sanctions for cross-dressing tend to be the same for homosexuality, such as torture, life imprisonment, and capital punishment. The Creeperian government does not permit sex change operations to take place in the empire, and it does not allow people to obtain new legal documents to have their gender changed on their documents. Much like with homosexuality, family members may feel obligated to kill a transgender sibling or relative in order to "save face" or restore the family's honor and esteem within the community. The Creeperian government has pardoned many individuals accused of killing a homosexual or transgender and they are not considered human beings by the government, instead considering LGBT people as "subhumans," effectively making the killing not equivalent to homicide. The Creeperian government asserts that homosexuality is a choice.
 
 
Creeperopolis has laws which discriminate and encourage discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity. Harassment or violence against LGBT people is not addressed in any bias-motivated or hate crime law. Advocacy for LGBT rights is illegal within the empire. The required exit and entry visa paperwork does not ask people about their sexual orientation, as it does their nationality, sex, religion, and marital status. Prior to 2010, homosexuals who had [[Greater Sacramento|Sacramatian]] citizenship were protected from death and were merely deported, however, after the passage of [[A Motion to Cleanse the Fatherland From Sin]] was passed on 9 February 2010 by the Council of Mayors, all homosexuals, even those with Sacramatian citizenship, were subject to immediate death.{{NoteTag|name="A Motion to Cleanse the Fatherland From Sin"|[[A Motion to Cleanse the Fatherland From Sin]] passed with a total vote tally of 6,123 for, 0 against, and 0 abstaining.}} Several LGBT rights activists have been arrested and killed by the Creeperian government.
 
 
There have been multiple instances of violence and murders targeting homosexuals and transsexuals throughout Creeperopolis' history. It was reported that during the Creeperian Civil War, both the Catholic Imperial Restoration Council and the National Council for Peace and Order kidnapped, tortured, and executed over thousands of homosexuals in the White and Red Terrors, respectively. After the civil war, violence against LGBT individuals continued. The [[Condor Initiative]] targetted gays under the banner of communism and atheism. After homosexuality was criminalized again after it was decriminalized in the Second Parliamentary Era, hate crimes against LGBT people skyrocketed and the [[Creeperian National Police|police]] did and continues to do nothing about it.
 
 
Public and private education in Creeperopolis are required to teach basic Catholic values based on the interpretation of the [[Creeperian Catholic Bible|Bible]], which includes strong condemnation of homosexuality. In addition, Creeperian Catholicism condemns cross-dressing. The [[Ministry of Education of Creeperopolis|Ministry of Education]] approved textbooks that reflect the county's Catholic view against homosexual acts by stating that "[h]omosexuality is one of the most disgusting sins and greatest crimes," and that the proper punishment for the intentional act of homosexual intercourse is death. The Creeperian government censors media with punishments of torture, imprisonment, or death for any person possessing, importing, distributing, or producing media without governmental approval. Media content, including advertising, cannot be seen as insulting the royal family or conflicting with Catholic teachings and values.<ref name="morovan blasphemy arrested" /><ref name="morovan blasphemy charged" /> Homosexuality and cross-dressing are dealt with in print news through news coverage of criminal matters. No endorsement of LGBT rights is permitted. Radio and TV programs are similarly banned from expressing support for LGBT rights, but homosexuality and cross-dressing can be discussed as long as the negative attitudes and biases are reinforced. A call-in TV show may feature a discussion about the immorality or "illness" of homosexuality. LGBT themes in movies, television, music, and other media are a factor to completely ban a movie, or at least heavily censor it. Customs agents keep a list of films or TV shows that are not allowed to be brought into the country. The government prohibits creating, distributing or accessing online content or webpages that the government deems to be pornographic, especially depiction homosexual acts, or in violation of religious values or public morals or is a threat to public health, safety or order. The Creeperian government has frequently blocked internet users in the country from accessing web pages or other online content that express support for LGBT rights. The restrictions on the internet extent to blogs, social media and video upload webpages.
 
 
== Intersex rights ==
 
 
Intersex people have no protection from discrimination from the government. The Creeperian government asserts that being intersex is the result of being corrupted in the womb by Baphomet as a result of immoral actions made by the mother during pregnancy. Intersex individuals are highly recommended to seek surgery or other treatments to treat their condition. Individuals who promote rights for intersex people and claim that being intersex is evidence of more than two genders are arrested, tortured, and executed. Discrimination is encouraged by laws against intersex people to motivate them to help return them to "normality."

[[Abortion in Creeperopolis]] is illegal. Abortion had never had any legal standing in Creeperopolis until 1950 when the Creeperian government made all abortions illegal. Punishment for preforming an abortion or receiving an abortion is torture and death, which have been enforced several times since the law came into effect in 1950. In 2016, the Creeperian government recorded 18 executions relating to preforming illegal abortions. Foreigners who have had abortions in the past have been banned from entering the country. The Constitution of Creeperopolis recognizes human life beginning at the moment of conception, effectively equating abortion to murder.

Human rights in Creeperopolis (Creeperian – Creeperian: Ճերեճոս հփմանոս եn Ծրեեպերօպոլիս; Creeperian – Iberic: Derechos humanos en Creeperópolis) are a topic of serious concern and are considered to be one of, if not, the worst in the world, often being used to compare the human rights statuses of Lyoa, Rakeo, and Sequoyah. Several nations have previously condemned the human rights record of Creeperopolis and several resolutions within the Terraconserva Council of Nations have been presented regarding human rights in the country. The Creeperian government enforces Levitical law which has caused several international organizations to denounce the government as violating basic human rights.

Foreign organizations have stated that there is virtually no freedom of speech or the press in the country, despite being legally protected by the Constitution. The only legal media providers are those approved by the Creeperian government which show "blind loyalty" and support of the government, such as the Gaceta Creeperiano and Noticias de la'Iniciativa. The only media outlet considered to not be "blindly loyal" and supportive the government is the Quebecshirite-owned Poste du Port headquartered in Puerto Francisco, which itself is considered to be the most developed place in Creeperopolis. Some groups have stated that Puerto Francisco is the only place in the entire country where human rights are actually enforced. According to Human Rights Terraconserva, there are around 175,000 prisoners incarcerated in prison camps across the country for political reasons and that they are subject to forced labor, torture, experimentation, and execution.

Foreigners of certain nationalities, specifically those from Greater Sacramento, Malgax, Sequoyah, and Terranihil, are strictly monitored by the Creeperian government as they have been considered "high-risk lawbreakers," likely for political, racial, and religious reasons. Natives of Creeperopolis have not reported many instances of human rights violations, either because the government does not mistreat its civilians that "fall in line" or because they are afraid of the consequences for speaking out against the government's actions. The most notable critic of the government which has documented the country's human rights violations is Orlando Hernández Alvarado, a journalist who founded the El Faro newspaper who lives in exile in Barreiganca, Greater Sacramento. He currently has a warrant for his arrest, has been charged with treason, and has been sentenced to death in absentia. The government maintains its position that criticism of its human rights record is a pretext for overthrowing the imperial government.

The Terraconserva Council of Nations has failed to pass any resolutions that condemned or actively investigated human rights violations and abuses in Creeperopolis since its inception in 1952. The most recent attempts to condemn Creeperopolis were Terraconserva Council of Nations Resolutions 002 and 004 in 2019 and 2020, respectively, but Quebecshire, a strong ally of Creeperopolis, vetoed both resolutions.[1][2] Terraconserva Council of Nations Resolution 006 officially launched an investigation into Creeperopolis' human rights record in 2020, but the Creeperian government refused to comply with the resolution and it was eventually repealed by Terraconserva Council of Nations Resolution 009 later that same year.[3][4]
