Civil (association + Domicile)

Association=Political citizen* under Fourteenth Amendment or 8 U.S.C. §1401.

Domicile = voluntary local MUNICIPAL allegiance in a specific county or political subdivision.

Called a CIVIL/DOMICILED Citizen**+D on this site.

The law of England, and of almost all civilized countries, ascribes to each individual at his birth two distinct legal states or conditions,-one by virtue of which he becomes the subject of some particular country, binding him by the tie of natural allegiance, and which may be called his political status; another by virtue of which he has ascribed to him the character of a citizen of some particular country, and as such is possessed of certain municipal rights, and subject to certain obligations, which latter character is the civil status or condition of the individual, and may be quite different from his political status.

[United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S. 649, 656 (1898)]


“He evidently used the word “citizen,” not as equivalent to “subject,” but rather to “inhabitant;””

[United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S. 649, 657 (1898)]


“[C]ivil status is universally governed by the single principle of domicil, [or] domicilium, the criterion established by international law for the purpose of determining civil status, and the basis on which “the personal rights of the party . . . must depend;”

[United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S. 649, 656-57 (1898)]


“Domicile is the place where one has his true, fixed, permanent home and principal establishment and to which, whenever he is absent, he has the intention of returning.”

[District of Columbia v. Murphy, 314 U.S. 441, 451 (1941)]

(b) Foreign country.

For purposes of section 7701(b) and the regulations thereunder, the term “foreign country” when used in a geographical sense includes any territory under the sovereignty of the United Nations or a government other than that of the United States. It includes the territorial waters of the foreign country (determined in accordance with the laws of the United States), and the seabed and subsoil of those submarine areas which are adjacent to the territorial waters of the foreign country and over which the foreign country has exclusive rights, in accordance with international law, with respect to the exploration and exploitation of natural resources. It also includes the possessions and territories of the United States.
