  What a cringe attitude to have. People born in a country should have citizenship.

    People born in a country should have citizenship.

    Why?

      Because it assures that people raised there aren’t separated from the country of origin. It blocks issues. It’s better. Why do you think they shouldn’t?

        Being the child of a tourist is not the same as being raised somewhere.

        Most european nations have special citizenship rights if you grew up in that nation or were born there after one of your parents has resided there at least some time.

        Example Germany:

        Children of non-German parents acquire German citizenship at birth if at least one parent has a permanent residence permit and resided in Germany for at least five years prior to the child’s birth.

        Btw. after residing legally in Germany for 5 years the parent can themselves acquire german citizenship.

        Example France:

        Children born in France to foreign parents may acquire citizenship from age 13 subject to residence conditions. A child born in France to foreign parents becomes a French citizen automatically upon turning 18, provided that they reside in France on their 18th birthday and have had their primary residence in France for a total (but not necessarily continuous) period of at least 5 years since the age of 11. Children born in France to two stateless parents receive French nationality automatically at birth.

        Also you can always go through the normal ways of acquiring citizenship. Upon turning 18 and having been raised in the country you usually fulfill all requirements for it.
