Political Status

Political status refers to the legal and official standing of a person, group, or territory within a political system. It can refer to the rights, responsibilities, and privileges that individuals or entities have within a particular political entity, such as citizenship, residency, or membership in a political party. Political status can also refer to the sovereignty or autonomy of a territory, such as whether it is a state, colony, or protectorate.

There are two types of Citizenship:
A citizen who is a member of the people in a state as part of the final authority over the government of that state as a body politic.
And a citizen subject, who is subject to and owned by a government or sovereign that created the citizenship status.

A “Political Status” is a status that can be one of these two types. There are functionally 3 types of political status:

• A “Sovereign” (A King, Emperor, Government, or Nation)
• A “Citizen” (A member of a State who is a member of the governing body of people with political rights. Think “We the People” or “Kingship Shared by Many”)
• A “Citizen Subject” (A subject in voluntary or involuntary servitude to a Sovereign)

Summary: There are political statuses that are subject to another status/government and those that aren’t. Each nation has its own political statuses, including the United States of America.
