Incarceration rates

This list is initially sorted alphabetically. Click the sorting cell below the incarceration rate header to sort by rate. The table can be sorted in ascending or descending order. The row number column on the left sorts independently from the columns to the right of it.

In the table below see "United Kingdom" to find the rates for Scotland, Northern Ireland, England and Wales. There is no rate here for the UK as a whole. South Korea is listed under Republic of (South) Korea. For info on North Korea see notes below.
