History
Each of the duchies has its own judicial and penal systems. Before 1779, there was no uniformity in the legal penalties between the duchies and many of the prisons operated in an arbitrary, and sometimes capricious, manner. Further complicating the judicial landscape, the Kingdom of Ventora did not have its own prison system, instead chartering private prisons or paying various dukes to house its convicts. King Pedro II commissioned Porfirio Robles, Baron of Odalis, to reform prisons in 1779. The task was challenging and took years to achieve any results due to the lack of structure and shear complication of trying to set standards for over 200 separate penal organizations.

In 1844, King Andrés I established the Nationalities Commission to conduct a census, register the population, and issue a national identification card. He also charged the Commission with determining suitability for persons wanting to immigrate to Ventora. Criteria included intelligence, skills, and "sociability" in that "criminals, hooligans, and fugitives shall be excluded."
