US prisoners per capita: 715

Iran prisoners per capita: 226

Particularly interesting to me is how prisoners in Iran have the right to vote while prisoners in the US can have their vote taken away.

Annual executions per capita, 2024 and 2025, excluding the Iranian protests:

USA: 1 in 12 million; 1 in 8.6 million

Iran: 1 in 97,000; 1 in 62,000
