Q2. Which country have death penalty?



Here are the countries that have death penalty.
Afghanistan, Algeria, Bahamas, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Barbados, Belarus, Benin, Botswana, Brunei Darussalam, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, China, Congo, Egypt, Equatorial Guinea, Ethiopia, Gambia, Ghana, Guatemala, Guinea, Guyana, India, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Jamaica, Japan, Jordan, Kenya, North Korea, South Korea, Kuwait, Laos, Lebanon, Liberia, Libya, Madagascar, Malawi, Malaysia, Maldives, Mali, Mauritania, Mongolia, Morocco, Myanmar, Niger, Nigeria, Oman, Pakistan, Palestinian Authority, Papua New Guinea, Qatar, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Vincent And and The Grenadines, Saint Lucia, Saudi Arabia, Sierra Leone, Singapore, Somalia, Sri Lanka, Sudan, South Sudan, Swaziland, Syria, Taiwan, Tanzania, Thailand, Trinidad and Tobago, Tunisia, Uganda, United Arab Emirates, United States, Vietnam, Yemen, Zambia, Zimbabwe.Though there are this much of countries that are able to execute, just 21 countries in the world carried out the death penalty in 2012. China has the most highest number of execution, which is thousands in five years but I think this is because of the population in that country. First, I was surprised at the numbers that carries out the death penalty but then when I found the information that says it only carried out in 21 countries, I was surprised again. Articles about facts seems like one person writing with his/her opinion but this cite was from National Geographic so I trust this one.
