Must be a currently existing country – As of 2018, there a 195 countries in the world today; 193 of which are member states of the United Nations. All former countries must be placed in appropriate sub-categories of Category:Fictional people by former country. Jurisdiction within each country defines the rights and obligations of citizenship within the jurisdiction and the manner in which citizenship is acquired as well as how citizenship may be lost. A person who is not a citizen of the country is generally regarded as a foreigner, also referred to as an alien. A person who has no recognised nationality or citizenship is regarded as stateless.
This category is for fictional characters by country, nation, kingdom, city, county, locality, territory, province, principality, subdivision, municipality, jurisdiction, sovereignty, expatriate, insular areas, reservation, and citizenship.
It should not be used to contain characters who are members of ethnic groups - use Category:Fictional people by ethnicity instead.
