The real dual citizenship fun starts when you get the draft for the next world war
...
I mean even if your 2 countries are on the same team you can't serve in 2 different armies at the same time, you'll need to go AWOL technically, in one or the other
Of course it's even worse when your 2 countries are at war with each others
You better hope they aren't drafted. You don't need people shooting you in the back. Better solution is to not have a draft. No more wars on foreign soil. If it's a war on home turf I'm sure you won't have trouble finding people.
Most ran to Canada during Vietnam.
Even Nixon on a recording in the Oval Office that has been released and labeled as “anti-Semitic” wondered why the kia lists hardly ever had a jew on them.
Oh, I'm not saying a draft for the next world war would be a great idea
All I'm saying is that once you're against the wall you're against the wall
You can't just "win" a war remotely, even with nukes. At some point you have to go there and occupy. And nukes fly both ways. Look at the korean war; the US army had nothing to bomb anymore, they bombed everything there was to bomb. And what do you get if they still don't surrender like japan did? Well you get the next day and a pissy north korea vowing to retaliate and keep the war going forever. Just like germany, even after being bombed to shit they kept fighting until the allies took berlin.
So in such context, people aren't going to be able to resume their normal life, let alone be allowed to do so, as if nothing happened. Normal is gone, martial law is declared, the constitution and courts are suspended, etc... Survivors fit to fight are drafted and shit starters are shot on the spot
