Though this is the general law by which citizenship is determined,…

Nowadays, being resident or citizen of a country might benefit or detriment an individual depending from what point of view it’s being seen from. For example, being an American comes with a lot of benefits due to the reason that the United States provides their citizens and residents with a lot of federal assistance. However, if an individual who is American goes to a country in which Americans are not welcome like Syria, Afghanistan, or Iran he or she will most probably get persecuted by the citizens of that nation due to the belief that, Americans are tyrants who bring chaos to a society.

Although the "Universal Declaration of Human Rights" sets a baseline for human rights, Caroline Moorehead's "Human Cargo: A Journey Among Refugees" shows an example of a nation violating ideas within the Declaration, while Vaclav Havel New Year's Day Speech show an example of a nation that has somewhat started following the principles set forth in it. Moorehead mainly draws attention to articles 3, 14, and to a lesser extent, 7. Article 3 states that "everyone has the right to life, liberty, and the security of person," while article 14 declares the right for people to seek asylum from persecution in other nations (TM 434, 435). In the early 1920s, the League of Nations persuaded Fridtjof Nansen to oversee the repatriation of hundreds of thousands…
