Genocide in the domestic criminal law of 80 nations

The word "genocide" in 80 languages

Malta is the 146th Party to the Genocide Convention; 140 Nations are State Parties; Over 40 Nations are NOT, including Indonesia, Japan and Nigeria. Recent new parties to the Genocide Convention include Palestine on Jan. 2, 2014, San Marino on Nov. 8, 2013, Guinea-Bissau on Sep. 24, 2013 and Cape Verde on June 2, 2011.

Palestine is the 123rd State Party to the International Criminal Court. On January 3, 2015 Palestine became the 123rd party to the Rome Statue of the International Criminal Court. Participation in the ICC now includes 27 State Parties in the Americas (Latin America and Caribbean), 34 in Africa, 19 in Asia-Pacific States, 18 from Eastern Europe and 25 from Western Europe and other States (including Canada, Australia and New Zealand).
    
Established on July 1, 2002, the ICC is currently investigating crimes committed after that date in Eastern DR Congo (Kinshasa), Northern Uganda (both States which are Parties to the Statute) as well as Darfur, Sudan (a nonparty State).
