| Message | **For gaining nationality: Current: Only those born in this nation or to nationals receive nationality. Alternatives: o Only those born to nationals become nationals. o Anyone receives nationality but immigrants must pass a test to gain nationality. o Anyone is able to claim nationality. **For gaining citizenship Current: Citizenship is granted to all nationals. Alternatives: o Citizenship is granted only to landowners. o Citizenship is granted based on race/religion/gender. o Citizenship is gained by passing a qualifying exam. I understand citizenship implies you are entitled to rights (eg: voting) and nationality means you can claim you are from Baltusia. |

| Random fact: In cases where players introduce RP laws to a nation and then leave, Moderation reserves the discretion to declare the RP laws void if they appear to have fallen into disuse. In particular, please bear in mind that a player who is inexperienced with Particracy role-play and has joined a nation as the only party there should not generally be expected to abide by RP laws implemented by previous players who have been and left. |
