Today the population of Australia consists of more than 270 ethnic groups. Until the mid-20th century, however, Australian society was, with some accuracy, regarded in the wider world as essentially British—or at any rate Anglo-Celtic.

While Australia now recognises dual citizenship, there are still many countries that do not allow their citizens to hold an additional foreign citizenship. It is a long-standing principle of citizenship law that the citizenship of a state is bestowed by that state.
Section 12 of the Australian Citizenship Act 2007 provides that a person born in Australia is an Australian citizen if a parent of the person is an Australian citizen, or a permanent resident, at the time the person is born or the person is ordinarily resident in Australia for the first 10 years of the person's life.
White Australian may refer to: European Australians, Australians with European ancestry. Anglo-Celtic Australians, an Australian with ancestry from the British Isles.
Many Australians hold two or more nationalities. As well as holding Australian citizenship, they are citizens (or 'nationals') of another country. If you are a dual national travelling to the country of your other nationality, you need to know how your citizenship can impact you.
There are 223 nationalities in the world and some countries have ethnic variants of nationalities. As with citizenships, there are 195 citizenships given that there are 195 countries in the world.
Ethnicity refers to shared cultural characteristics such as language, ancestry, practices, and beliefs. It is easy to confuse nationality and tribe, but there are major differences between them. Nationality is the relationship between a person and the political state to which he belongs or is affiliated.
Australia's Indigenous peoples are two distinct cultural groups made up of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
Australia is a very multicultural society, with around one quarter of the population born overseas. As a result, you will find food and traditions from a wide variety of cultures — Chinese, French, Greek, Indian, Italian, Japanese, Mexican, Thai, Vietnamese, you name it!
Your nationality is the country you come from: American, Canadian, and Russian are all nationalities. Everyone has a gender, race, sexual orientation...and a nationality. A person's nationality is where they are a legal citizen, usually in the country where they were born.
Country of birth is the country in which a person was born. This is different to nationality which is the country or countries where a person can have a legal status, although they may not reside in that country.
A person born in India on or after 3rd December, 2004 is considered citizen of India by birth if both the parents are citizens of India or one of the parents is a citizen of India and the other is not an illegal migrant at the time of his birth.
The answer is you can have as many as you want, depending on your original citizenship. While some countries allow dual citizenship or many citizenships at the same time, others do not and require you to renounce your previous citizenship.
Is it possible to obtain multiple citizenships? The answer is yes! You may have three or even six nationalities. But legislation in some countries does not allow dual citizenship: you may lose the citizenship of your home country.
Each country has its own nationality laws based on its own policy. Persons may have dual nationality by automatic operation of different laws rather than by choice. For example, a child born in a foreign country to U.S. national parents may be both a U.S. national and a national of the country of birth.
While 'nationality” is the preferred legal term, 'citizenship' is used more broadly to describe the rights, duties, and practices linked to this formal status. In certain contexts, the term 'nationality' also denotes belonging to a national or ethnic community.
Primary Citizenship Evidence is proof for those born in the United States. A birth certificate will qualify for a Certificate of Citizenship. A U.S. born citizen's birth certificate will be issued by the city, county, or state of birth.
