Nationality refers to a person's legal qualification as a national or citizen of a certain country, which indicates a fixed legal connection between a person and a specific country and is the legal basis for that country to exercise personal jurisdiction and diplomatic protection.
Obtaining nationality by birth is not according to one's own wishes, but the way to join in obtaining nationality is based on one's own wishes or some facts. Only when the relevant conditions are met can one obtain the nationality of another country.
Continuous nationality
