Category:People executed by Germany
Reason: As stated in my edit note, this category currently only lists people who were executed by Nazi Germany. It doesn't list people executed by the German Democratic Republic nor any other cases of execution in the history of Germany even though capital punishment was a valid type of punishment in the law books of Germany at some point in history, until it was abolished some decades ago. I'm not moving the category myself, because a category "People executed by Germany" has justification to exist as its own entity; it's not completely off as a category. It could be a parent category to the category "People executed by Nazi Germany" and "People executed by the German Democratic Republic" for example. So, I'm not sure whether just to move this category or whether it would be best to use it as a parent category and move its current entries to a newly created "Category:People executed by Nazi Germany".
