Summary/Abstract: This paper addresses the topic of citizenship, considered an issue of internal law, on the grounds that the state, based on the principle of national sovereignty, is the one that sets, on the one hand, the criteria and methods for obtaining or losing its citizenship, and, on the other hand, the rights and obligations of the persons who have/acquire its citizenship based on these. The emergence of the cases of dual/triple citizenship or of statelessness may be regarded as the result of concepts and regulations of the states, which are sovereign in the case of granting and withdrawing citizenship.
