What Is Your Nationality

What is your nationality?

Nationality: Malaysian

What is your nationality?

I feel stateless. I was born one country and brought to another country as an infant/toddler. I feel I belong to the country that I grew up in and spent my childhood. Just because I was born in a country which I never lived (I have to entitled myself to it?)No. I don't think so. And I hate to talk about citizenships/visas/paperwork/ immigration. Those don't matter to a infant/ child, they grow up and are influenced by their environment. I wasn't aware of legal paperwork, all I knew is the country that I grew up in and I call it the home and I get connected to it(even emotionally). I consider myself an American, if though I was not born here because this is where I grew up and I think it is only appropriate to call myself that way. I don't like when people judge me/anyone based on their birth place of who they are and what should they consider themselves. all these passports/paperwork are boundaries of what we really feel inside. Nationality consists of all the things. Where your parents came from, place of birth, and where you grew up/environment. Just because your born does not you can get connected to the country of birth when you don't even grow up there/ spend your formative years in the country your born in. I think its absolutely correct to consider yourself with the country that you spent most of your life in than the country of birth.Speaking of nationalities. Since, everyone go straight to legal papers. ill tell you this. I am a U.S. citizen. But the paper work does not make a difference how I feel inside. I felt the same way before and after.

What would your nationality be if you were born in the UK and your parents are from two different countries?

Nationality would be the U.K. And if that person got awarded citizenship from either of their parents’ countries, then that would be their nationality too.Just make sure you’re not getting nationality and ethnicity confused. Nationality is simply the place you hold citizenship at. Ethnicity is much more complex.

What is your nationality and what does it mean to you?

I am an American, specifically a Californian.My roots date back to the Carolinas when my English ancestor arrived 1670 and married someone who was 23 born in Virginia, so I am a thirteenth generation America. My ancestors fought in American Revolution War, Mexican-American War, both sides of the Civil War, World War I, and World War II.I am a fifth generation Californian - both sides of my family came to California in 1845 when it was governed by Mexico before the California Gold rush. Californians are different from most Americans especially since they are a blend of Asian, Hispanic, and European influence. We are taught as children to be friendly to everyone, something that is not found in the East Coast.  Both sides of my family tree came to America seeking Religious Freedom: my father side is Protestant and my mother side is Catholic: I am familiar with both belief systems, and neither side wanted my parents to marry for the same reason. As a child, I experienced the conflict between the two groups where one side did not speak to the other. That is why I cherish religious freedom guaranteed by separation of Church and State.I was always proud of my English ancestry until I lived in England. I came to England as a British descendant and left as an American, wanting nothing to do with class oriented society where "who you were a descendant of" matter more than "what you accomplished". I lived in other States, but even there, I was Californian where I am currently living.My nationality is does not have a specific meaning separate from me.  It is  who I am, what I value, and where I choose to live.

What is your nationality if you are born in space?

Although I'm not entirely sure how a pregnant woman would survive the trip upstairs or how will a woman spend 9 months in zero gravity with all that nausea, but let's chuck that out the window for a while. This type of situation is very similar to a child being born on a cruise ship in international waters.Many nations will accept a person as their citizen if the parents are both citizens of the country.If both the parents are from different countries, then mother's nationality is given importance. In some countries, fathers is given priority.There is no concern of a person being born 'over' a nation.Apart from this, there are many other critical due diligence that would be required to be done.Legal issues Not sure if there will be any legal issues. The doctor on board will issue a birth certificate indicating the place of birth and other details as discussed before hand. Citizenship will be taken care of when the person (parents) return back to their home state and take it up with their authorities. They will need to show their nationality proof and the kid's birth certificate.Diplomatic issues If a person is born over international waters and doesn't have a passport on them (duh?) they may face certain problems while entering other states (which are not the home states of their parents). However, this can be resolved by getting a temporary certificate of nationality from the embassy. Some countries also call is certificate of representation. NRIs (Non-resident Indians) get it issued from their respective embassies and are supposed to carry it with them always.Practical issues Apart from the problem of how an unborn kid gets into the space, I don't see any more problem.

Is nationality based on which country you were born in or where your parents are from?

Whether or not your nationality is determined by the country you were born in (jus soli) or where your parents are from (jus sanguinis) depends entirely on the laws of the country or countries in question as well as your personal circumstances.Most countries I know have some form of jus sanguinis law, although some may be more restrictive. For example, you will only be considered a Bhutanese citizen if both of your parents are Bhutanese citizens (thereby disqualifying people born of mixed marriages), and you can only be considered a Kuwaiti citizen if your father is a Kuwaiti citizen. So a baby born to a Kuwaiti mother and a Bhutanese father would technically be stateless, unless they are born in a country with unrestricted jus soli laws.This brings us to a much smaller subset of countries - such as the US, Argentina, Mexico and Tanzania - that aside from jus sanguinis also operate on the concept of unrestricted jus soli. This means that any child born on US, Argentinian, Mexican or Tanzanian soil is considered a citizen of that country regardless of where their parents come from or their legal status.Of course, this leads to interesting situations where children can technically be born with 5 nationalities (or more) depending on the circumstances of their birth and heritage! A child born in the US to a mother with dual UK/Canadian citizenship and a father with German/Filipino citizenship could technically end up with passports from five countries: US, UK, Canada, Germany and the Philippines. This is actually not as strange an occurence as one might think.Whether or not some countries will acknowledge this dual nationality is another thing, however. Many countries do not recognise dual nationality and will revoke your citizenship should they find out.

What is your nationality if your mom is “Native Hawaiian” and your dad is “African American”?

If you were born and brought up in Hawaii by a “Native Hawaiian” mother and an “African-American” father, then your nationality is American. You appear - as do many Americans - to confuse the concepts of nationality and ethnicity or heritage.Although terms like “African-American” may be useful for polling organisations, social studies reasearchers and politicians seeking to ensure fairness in policy-making, it is not a “nationality”. African-Americans are American. Just like Italian-Americans, Irish-Americans, Asian-Americans and all the other hyphenated Americans that Americans desperate to have a “cool” link to countries they really have no connection to are.Drop the hyphens. Accept your Americanness.
