Title: South Asians in Hong Kong
Passage: Hong Kong has a long-established South Asian population.  As of the 2006 by-census, there were at least 44,744 persons of South Asian descent in Hong Kong.  Many trace their roots in Hong Kong as far back as when most of the Indian subcontinent was still under British colonial rule, and as a legacy of the British Empire, their nationality issues remain largely unsettled.  However, recently an increasing number of them have acquired Chinese nationality.
Title: List of foreign volunteers
Passage: The armed forces of many nations have, at one time or another, used foreign volunteers who are motivated by political, ideological or other considerations to join a foreign army.  These may be formed into units of a given nationality or may be formed into mixed nationality foreign units.  Sometimes foreign volunteers were or are incorporated into ordinary units.  The practice has a long history, dating back at least as far as the Roman Empire, which recruited non-citizens into Auxiliary units on the promise of them receiving Roman citizenship for themselves and their descendents at the end of their service

Title: Immigration and Nationality Directorate
Passage: The Immigration and Nationality Directorate (IND) was part of the Home Office, a department of the United Kingdom government.  The department had its headquarters in Croydon, South London, where it occupied thirteen buildings.  The IND was responsible for inward migration to the United Kingdom, asylum applications and the recognition of refugees, nationality and citizenship and the removal and deportation of immigration offenders.  The Immigration and Nationality Directorate was replaced by the Border and Immigration Agency on 1 April 2007, which was in turn subsumed into the UK Border Agency on 1 April 2008 and replaced by UK Visas and Immigration in 2013.
Title: Denization
Passage: Denization is an obsolete or defunct process in England and Ireland and the later Kingdom of Great Britain, the United Kingdom, and the British Empire, dating back to the 13th century, by which an alien (foreigner), through letters patent, became a denizen, thereby obtaining certain rights otherwise only normally enjoyed by the King's (or Queen's) subjects, including the right to hold land.  The denizen was neither a subject (with citizenship or nationality) nor an alien, but had a status akin to permanent residency today.  While one could become a subject via naturalisation, this required a private act of Parliament (or latterly of a colonial legislature); in contrast, denization was cheaper, quicker, and simpler.  Denization fell into obsolescence when the British Nationality and Status of Aliens Act 1914 simplified the naturalisation process.
Title: Servant of the Empire
Passage: Servant of the Empire is a fantasy novel by Raymond E. Feist and Janny Wurts.  Published in 1990, it is the second book in the "Empire" Trilogy, preceded by 1987's "Daughter of the Empire" and followed by "Mistress of the Empire" in 1992.
Title: All-Russian nation
Passage: The All-Russian nation, also known as the pan-Russian nation or the triune Russian nation is a Russophile ideology which sees the Russian nation comprise three historical, regional branches: Great Russians, Little Russians and White Russians.  An imperial nation-building dogma, it was used in an unsuccessful attempt to transform the Russian Empire into a nation-state on the basis of a triune "All-Russian" nationality that consisted of, in addition to ethnic Russians, all indigenous East Slavic inhabitants of historic Rus' (namely, Ukrainians and Belarusians).  The concept was coined predominantly by the Kievan clergy and became the official state-sponsored national identity of the Russian Empire, which by the 19th century was embraced by many imperial subjects (including Jews and Germans) and served as the foundation of the Empire.  The title "Tsar Of All Rus'" borne by every Russian ruler after Peter the Great reflects the official status of this ideology in the Russian Empire.
Title: Romani people in the Czech Republic
Passage: Romani people (Czech: "Romové" , commonly known as Gypsies Czech: "Cikáni" ) in the Czech Republic constitute a minority.  According to the last census from 2011, the Romani nationality was reported by the total of 13,150 inhabitants.  Only a small part of them filled in only the Romani nationality (5 199).  Most of them stated the Romani nationality in combination with another one, for example, the Romani and Czech, the Romani and Moravian and the like (7,951).  In the 2001 Census, 11,746 people reported the Romani nationality – at that time it was 0.1% of those claiming some nationality.  In 2011, the result 13,150 is 0.2% of those, who reported some nationality.
Title: British Nationality (Hong Kong) Selection Scheme
Passage: The British Nationality (Hong Kong) Selection Scheme, usually known in Hong Kong as simply the British Nationality Selection Scheme (BNSS), was a process whereby the Governor of Hong Kong, by Order of Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom in the British Privy Council, invited certain classes of people, who were permanent residents of Hong Kong with the right of abode, under the Hong Kong Immigration Ordinance, "Chapter 115" "", and who were also considered British nationals under Parts II, III and IV and Part V, Section 38, of the British Nationality Act 1981, "Chapter 61", but were not British citizens (with the right of abode in the United Kingdom) under Part I, Sections 1 and 2, of the 1981 Act, to apply to be considered and then be selected to become registered as British citizens under the British Nationality (Hong Kong) Act 1990, "Chapter 34", by the British Home Secretary, under the advice and the recommendation of the Governor with the consent of the British Foreign Secretary.
