Talenore nationality law
The Talenore Nationality and Residency Act of 1669 regulates the acquisition and loss of Talenore nationality, as well as all forms of legal residence in Talenore. Talenore nationality automatically confers Shirerithian nationality, with all the rights and responsibilities connected to that. Talenore nationality follows the principle of jus sanguinis with limited jus soli provisions.
