There are several peristant concerns of the status of '''human rights in the Holy Traditionalist Empire of Creeperopolis''' and its vassals of the [[El Salvador|Principality of El Salvador]] and the [[Second State of the Church|State of the Church]].  
+
'''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. The Creeperian government enforces Levitical law which has caused several international organizations to denounce the government as violating basic human rights.
  
== Constitutional Stance ==
+
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]].
  
{{main|Constitution of Creeperopolis}}

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.
  
The [[Constitution of Creeperopolis|Constitution of Creeperopolis of 1833]] officially states that [[Creeperopolis]] protects the rights of its inhabitants and that ignoring these human rights is unconstitutional.  
+
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 [[TCN Resolution 002|002]] and [[TCN Resolution 004|004]] in 2019 and 2020, respectively, but [[Quebecshire]], a strong ally of Creeperopolis, vetoed both resolutions.<ref name="TCN Resolution 002">{{cite web|url=https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=1264641|title=TCN Resolution 002 – Condemnation of Creeperopolis and the Suggestion of Sanctions|author=Permanent Mission of Malgax to the Terraconserva Council of Nations|author1-link=Permanent Mission of Malgax to the Terraconserva Council of Nations|date=29 September 2019|access-date=30 January 2021|website=www.tcn.org}}</ref><ref name="TCN Resolution 004">{{cite web|url=https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=1305101|title=TCN Resolution 004 – Condemnation of Creeperopolis|author=Permanent Mission of Morova to the Terraconserva Council of Nations|author1-link=Permanent Mission of Morova to the Terraconserva Council of Nations|date=11 January 2020|access-date=30 January 2021|website=www.tcn.org}}</ref> [[TCN Resolution 006|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 [[TCN Resolution 009|Terraconserva Council of Nations Resolution 009]] later that same year.<ref name="TCN Resolution 006">{{cite web|url=https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=1305473|title=TCN Resolution 006 – A Resolution to Launch an Investigation Into Creeperopolis|author=Joint Sponsors of Eminople, Greater Sacramento, New Gandor, and Paleocacher|date=13 January 2020|access-date=30 January 2021|website=www.tcn.org}}</ref><ref name="TCN Resolution 009">{{cite web|url=https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=1337249|title=TCN Resolution 009 – Repeal of TCN Resolution 006 – A Resolution to Launch an Investigation Into Creeperopolis|author=Permanent Mission of Creeperopolis to the Terraconserva Council of Nations|author1-link=Permanent Mission of Creeperopolis to the Terraconserva Council of Nations|date=28 March 2020|access-date=30 January 2021|website=www.tcn.org}}</ref>

=== Anti-Atheism ===
 
 
 
{{main|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 Parliament of Creeperopolis]] (1887-1933/1949) and the [[Creeperian Civil War]] (1933-1949). 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 [[Creeperopolis|Creeperian Government]] continues to impose Anti-Atheist policies.
 
 
 
The Creeperian government has severed ties with [[Morova]] and [[Terranihil]] due to their atheist tendencies and has extremely strained relations with [[Willdavie]]. Creeperopolis' relationship with [[Quebecshire]] has remained intact due to their support in the [[Creeperian Civil War]] and due to its purchases of [[National Coffee and Sugar Corporation|sugar]]. In Creeperopolis, practicing Atheism is [[Capital Punishment in Creeperopolis|punishable by the death penalty]].
 
 
 
==== Government Executions ====
 
 
 
On January 19, 2020, the Creeperian government executed 10 Atheists in [[Atlántida (department)|Atlántida]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.nationstates.net/page=rmb/postid=37413285|title=Gaceta Creeperiano - 10 Atheists Executed in Atlántida|date=January 19, 2020}}</ref>
 
 
 
==== Extrajudicial Executions ====
 
 
 
On January 19, 2020, Creeperian villagers in [[San Miguel (department)|San Miguel]] tortured, crucified, and burned an Atheist alive.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.nationstates.net/page=rmb/postid=37413285|title=Gaceta Creeperiano - Atheist Tortured, Crucified, and Burned Alive by Villagers in San Miguel|date=January 19, 2020}}</ref> Following a protest by the [[Morova|Morovan government]]<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.nationstates.net/page=rmb/postid=37414204|title=Gaceta Creeperiano - Morovan Government Protests Death of Atheist|date=January 19, 2020}}</ref> later that day, the same villagers broke into a house home to a suspected Atheist family. The family of four was forcibly taken out of their home, crucified, and burned alive by the villagers in protest to the Morovan government's condemnation.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.nationstates.net/page=rmb/postid=37416227|title=Gaceta Creeperiano - Villagers Crucify and Burn an Alleged Family of Atheists|date=January 19, 2020}}</ref>
 
 
 
On January 27, 2020, atheists across the department of [[San Miguel (department)|San Miguel]] were burned alive in their homes with several more being crucified.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.nationstates.net/page=rmb/postid=37479197|title=Gaceta Creeperiano - Atheists Killed Across San Miguel|date=January 27, 2020}}</ref>
 
 
 
On February 3, 2020, an atheist was crucified and burned by villagers in front of [[Morova|Morovan]] journalists fimling a documentary on the killings of atheists in the department of San Miguel.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.nationstates.net/page=rmb/postid=37543891|title=Gaceta Creeperiano - Atheist Crucified and Burned in Front of Morovan Journalists|date=February 3, 2020}}</ref>
 
 
 
=== Anti-Communism ===
 
 
 
{{main|Anti-Communism in Creeperopolis}}
 
 
 
Anti-Communism (''Anticomunismo'') is an enforced policy in Creeperopolis. Creeperian Anti-Communism is an ideology and a political movement against Communism, as a theory and more specifically as it presented itself during the [[Second Parliament of Creeperopolis]] (1887-1933/1949). Organized Anti-Communism developed during the [[Creeperian Civil War]] with rise of the [[National Council for Peace and Order]], nicknamed the ''Miguelists''. Anti-communism 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 communism was the [[Creeperian Pro-Fatherland Front]] which fought in the [[Creeperian Civil War]] with its [[Camisas Negras]] starting in 1933 against the [[Creeperian Social Communist Party]] and its [[Atheist Red Army]]. The Romerist movement was militarily supported by several allied foreign governments which represented the first instance of Anti-Communism 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-Communism as one of its core ideologies.
 
 
 
The [[Creeperopolis|Creeperian Government]] continues to impose Anti-Communist policies.
 
 
 
Diplomatic relations with [[Morova]] have been cut since 1920/1933. Supreme Leader [[Fyodor Ivanovich]] unexpectedly visited Creeperopolis in September 2019 following the arrest of a Morovan man possessing a pro-atheist communist pamphlet<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.nationstates.net/page=rmb/postid=36335477|title=Morovan Man Arrested on Charges of Blasphemy and Atheism|date=September 2, 2019}}</ref>, marking the first time Morovan and Creeperian leaders met. The event has not been notified to the Creeperian public.
 
 
 
The [[Third Senvarian Insurgency]] (1934-2020) against the separatist [[Senvarian Liberation Front]] was seen as an armed Anti-Communist struggle in Creeperopolis. A death squad, the [[Militarist Nationalist Front|Sombra Negra]], targeted [[Senvarians]] and communists since its establishment in 1940 by [[Adolfo Rivera López]] during the civil war. FRENAMI sees vigilante justice as the only way to cleanse Creeperopolis of communism. There are allegations that FRENAMI may be funded or operated by the Creeperian government, which denies the claims.
 
 
 
== Criminal Justice ==
 
 
 
=== Prison System ===
 
 
 
Creeperian prisons have been reported as "harboring the harshest living conditions ever seen on the [[Terraconserva|planet]]."{{citation needed}} Up to six prisoners are reportedly crammed into cells built for only one inmate. Prisons are also reportedly overcrowded far beyond capacity. Prison guards have been reported to have been authorized to use deadly force on inmates deemed "out of line."
 
 
 
==== Concentration Camps ====
 
 
 
The Creeperian government and [[Creeperian Armed Forces]] have been accused of using concentration camps, forced labor camps, and extermination camps for their own benefits.{{citation needed}} Many have claimed that a prison camp exists in the department of [[Zapatista]] which effectively enslaves members of [[Mara Salvatrucha]] to be effective slaves and forced laborers. The gang members are then claimed to be gassed or used as target practice for a firing squad once they have been deemed "exhausted of labor potential." Both the Creeperian government and [[Creeperian Armed Forces]] deny the accusations.
 
 
 
Many have claimed that the notorious prison, [[Tuxtla Martínez-Panachor Maximum Correctional Facility]], locally called "the Panachor Hellhole," is a Creeperian extermination camp.{{citation needed}} The government denies these accusations.
 
 
 
=== Executions ===
 
 
 
{{main|Capital Punishment in Creeperopolis}}
 
 
 
Capital punishment is a legal penalty in Creeperopolis which is currently used in all [[Departments of Creeperopolis|29 departments]], the [[Second State of the Church|Papal State]], [[El Salvador]], and the [[Creeperian Armed Forces|military]]. Its existence can be traced to the [[Old Kingdom of Creeperopolis]] (537AD-745AD). [[Creeperopolis]] is the only nation on the [[Southern Landmass]] that applies the death penalty regularly. <!--Creeperopolis is one of XX countries worldwide applying it.--> A total of 3,265 were executed in 2019.
 
 
 
Death sentences in Creeperopolis are pronounced almost exclusively based on the system of judicial sentencing discretion, the [[Creeperian Bible]], or the [[Constitution of Creeperopolis|Creeperian Constitution]]. The rise in death sentences during recent decades resulted from a concerted reaction by the government and the courts to a rise in violent crime during the [[Third Senvarian Insurgency]], [[Mara War]], [[Castillianan Insurgency]], and [[Deltinian Insurgency]].
 
 
 
Methods of execution include beheading, burning, crucifixion, falling from helicopter, firing squad, gas inhalation, hanging, and stoning.

==== Specific Cases ====
 
 
 
{{main|2020 Creeperian coup d'état Attempt}}
 
{{main|2020 Creeperian Purges}}
 
 
 
From 2000 to 2020, Creeperopolis has seen two distinct bumps in execution count.
 
 
 
The first bump in execution count came from 2003-2004. In 2003, the [[Creeperian Armed Forces]] [[2003 Creeperian coup d'état|toppled the]] [[Alfonso VI of Creeperopolis|government of Alfonso VI]]. Following the coup, the new government under [[Alexander II of Creeperopolis|Alexander II]] and under direct orders of [[Minister of Defense of Creeperopolis|Minister of Defense]] [[Augusto Cabañeras Gutiérrez]] [[2003-2004 Creeperian Purges|arrested, tortured, and executed thousands of supporters]] of the [[October 16 Regime|old regime]]. The [[National Intelligence Directorate]] (DINA) carried out most of the executions with the police force carrying out the remainder.
 
 
 
In 2019, executions skyrocketed following the [[2019 San Salvador Attacks]] and the [[Martial Law in Creeperopolis (2019)|imposition of martial law]]. Its effects continued into 2020 with an above average count of executions occuring. Executions skyrocketed again following the [[2020 Creeperian coup d'état Attempt]].
 
 
 
The narrow majority of executions were related to terrorism or war. Only around 20% of the executions were related to terrorism with the remaining 80% being executed prisoners of war from the [[Creeperian Conflicts]].

== Criticism of Government Practices ==
 
 
 
Although human rights are protected by Title IV, Chapter III, Section I, Article XXV of the [[Constitution of Creeperopolis|Creeperian Constitution]]: "''The Empire protects the basic human rights of all individuals. (Does not apply to convicts)''," it clearly states human rights do not apply convicts, and even then, upholding human rights in southern Creeperopolis is a serious issue.
 
 
 
It is reported that "''Widespread human rights violations committed by the [[Catholic Imperial Restoration Council|Romerists]] during the [[Creeperian Civil War]] (1933-1949), by the regimes of [[Romero II of Creeperopolis|Romero II]], [[Romero III of Creeperopolis|Romero III]], [[October 16 Regime|Alfonso VI]], and [[Alexander II of Creeperopolis|Alexander II]], and by the [[Creeperian Armed Forces|Armed Forces of Creeperopolis]] in [[Senvar (department)|Senvar]] remained unpunished.''"{{citation needed}} Reports also assert that the government is currently misusing anti-terrorism laws to detain and harass political opponents of the government and suspected [[Senvarian Liberation Front]] and [[Mara Salvatrucha]] members. In addition, reports drew attention to several instances of unlawful police killings, which remain fairly common. Other current issues in the past 10 years include missing convicts, failure of law enforcement to properly investigate prosecute crimes against [[Senvarians]] and [[Sonsatepanians]], and rendering organized labor unions illegal.
 
 
 
Discrimination against LGBT people, atheists, and apostates in Creeperopolis is very widespread. According to a survey conducted in December 2019, 89% of Creeperans believe that homosexuality should not be accepted by society, another 92% believe that atheism should not be accepted by society, and another 98% believe that apostasy should not be accepted by society. [[Capital Punishment in Creeperopolis|Death penalty]] is enforced across the nation against homosexuals, atheists, and apostates. Many villagers carry out extrajudicial executions of homosexuals, atheists, and apostates without official government approval. The government has failed to bring an end to these extrajudicial executions and even encourage these executions.{{citation needed}}

Latest revision as of 21:23, 12 March 2024

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]
