nationality theory

Read a random definition: ACLU

A quick definition of nationality theory:

Nationality theory: This means that if you are a citizen of a country, you have to follow the laws of that country no matter where you are in the world. So, if you are a citizen of the United States and you go to another country, you still have to follow the laws of the United States.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Nationality theory is a jurisdictional principle that states that citizens are subject to the laws of their country, no matter where they are.

Example: If a person is a citizen of the United States, they are subject to U.S. laws even if they are traveling or living in another country.

Explanation: Nationality theory means that a person's citizenship determines which laws they must follow. For example, if a U.S. citizen commits a crime while traveling in another country, they can still be prosecuted under U.S. law. This is because they are subject to the laws of their home country, no matter where they are in the world.

i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
