      Wow I had no idea the difference was so stark globally, its crazy how many countries are red tbh 🤔

      This map is wrong as it does not have a ”Both” or “Mixed” category. France has both Droit du Sol (Land) and du Sang (Blood), the US also the Rule of Blood with more stringent conditions. I assume a lot of other countries are also wrong, based on those two prominent ones being incorrect.

      This map gets reposted all the time and its oversimplified. Most countries have both. A baby born abroad to US citizens will also gain citizenship at birth.

      France is wrong, you get French nationality if you’re born in France, except in Mayotte

      Makes sense. It’s basically just a map of the old world versus the new world.

      There are many intermediate and mixed categories though. Germany offers ius soli now too if at least one parent has PR at the time of the birth of the child (and has been in the country for five years or more).

      No surprise given the Americas were not heavily populated and became colonies from Europeans. Which in turn led to immigration after pushing out the indigenous population. Then all that land needed to be populated by giving citizenship to those who wound up born there.

      Still don’t know why Australia and New Zealand and south Africa don’t have it

      True. I was born in Japan and, in spite of being a ginger, I’ve been asked a lot if I’m Japanese.

      Nation states (like Greece, Sweden, Thailand) are basically reserves for the particular ethinicity they are trying to protect, so rule of blood makes sense for them.

      People in North America are always surprised when I tell them I don’t have the citizenship of the country that I’m born in. They assume by default every country has citizenship by birth.
      And then there’s me who was surprised to learn this law exists when I was young

      My mother’s parents were from Poland. He worked as a translator for the Americans in WWII, and afterwards, he was allowed to come over here. My mother was born about five months after they arrived in New York. The family moved to the Mid-West and had another daughter. Both children were US citizens by birth. My grandparents eventually became US citizens and renounced their Polish citizenship. They then had another two children.

      Since the first two daughters were born before my grandparents gave up their Polish citizenship, they could apply to Poland for dual citizenship. The second two children can’t. That all seems logical… Now, since my mother *could* apply for Polish citizenship, my brother and I could, too. He did and is currently living in Europe. But my uncle and second aunt can’t.

      Meanwhile America is criticized left and right for immigration yet we give citizenship more easily than most of the world.
      Anything you toss at me in response I’ll find at least two western nations stricter challenge.
      Or I’ll apologize humbly.

      Because in America’s 3/4rd of the population blood isn’t from the Americas. They would have no rights here so it had to be land. By blood there are no whites that belong in the Americas therefore no citizenship.

      Need an option for both. I have my Canadian citizenship through my parents but was born in the USA

    40. CarlosT8020 on

      Basically all countries that were previously colonies have the rule of land, which makes sense. Else there wouldn’t be any US citizens in the beginning since they were all children of British/Irish/Germans…

    41. NordicHorde2 on

      Unsurprisingly the nations with large colonist descended populations have birthright citizenship. With a few exceptions like Australia.

      Can we get a: Hip hip Horay! for Colombia, the only civilized place in the new world?

    43. yYuri_- on

      I wish in chile it was rule of the blood, a lot of people just get here to get the passport and leave
