'''[[Imagua]]n nationality law''' is governed by the '''Citizenship Act of 1917''', as amended by the Citizenship Acts of 1938, 1947, and 2005. (TBC)
The '''Prime Minister of Surrow''' was the {{wp|head of government}} of [[Surrow]] from when it was granted full {{wp|self-government}} by [[Rythene]] in 1915 until Surrow was granted independence in 1950. By custom, the Prime Minister of Surrow was the leader of the largest party in the [[Parliament of Surrow|Surrowese Parliament]], or otherwise had the most support among the members of Parliament.


==History==
==List==
===Origins===
{| class="wikitable"  style="width:100%; text-align:center;"
Under [[Estmere|Estmerish]] rule, residents of the [[Colony of Imagua]] were Estmerish subjects, by virtue of their connection to the Estmerish colony. However, as the colony was granted more and more {{wp|self-government}} from 1892 onward, calls were made by left-wing organisations such as the [[Democratic Labour Party of Imagua|Labour Party]] and the [[Democratic Party of Imagua|Democrats]] to establish a separate Imaguan citizenship, and restrict participation in the [[Legislative Council of Imagua|Imaguan legislative council]] to those who bore that status. However, the governing [[National Party of Imagua|Conservatives]] consistently opposed the measure, as it was perceived to be disloyal.
|-
 
! {{Abbr|№|Number}}
Following the election of [[Peter Hansson]] as [[Prime Minister of Imagua and the Assimas|Premier]] in 1917, and the establishment of a Democratic-Labour coalition, the legislature tabled the ''Citizenship Act of 1917'' which would establish a status of Imaguan citizenship, ''dependent'' on the holder being an Estmerish subject. After a lengthy process, the governor granted {{wp|royal assent}} on 1 October, 1917.

! width=10%| Name
For nearly two decades, the ''Citizenship Act of 1917'' remained as was. However, with Imagua being granted "equal partner" status with Estmere, calls were made to separate the two nation's citizenships, so that Imaguan citizenship was no longer dependent on Estmerish citizenship.

===Citizenship Act of 1938===
! Days
Thus, in 1938, the ''Citizenship Act of 1938'' was passed, which formally separated Imaguan citizenship from that of Estmerish citizenship: thus, children of Estmerish personnel stationed at [[Mordred Naval Base]] were no longer to be considered Imaguan citizens, and Imaguan citizens born after its passage no longer had [[Estmere|Estmerish citizenship]], unless they met the relevant sections of [[Estmerish nationality law|Estmere's nationality law]]. This officially established an Imaguan nationality, as opposed to an Estmerish nationality.
! Election
 
! width=10%| Political party
The passage of the Citizenship Act of 1938 was hailed as a triumph for Imaguan nationalists, as it was seen as politically distancing Imagua from Estmere, and thus ensuring that Imagua and Estmere "were truly equal" on the international stage. However, with the outbreak of the [[Solarian War]], Imagua's main objective was to seize the [[Assimas Islands]] from the [[Etrurian Revolutionary Republic]], and integrate it into the territory of Imagua. As the Solarian War drew to a close, in 1945, [[Dunhelm Island]] was seized by [[Maracao|Maracanese]] forces, and following the defeat of the Imaguan colonial militia in 1947 at the [[Battle of Dunhelm Island (1947)|Battle of Dunhelm Island]], these became the two main pressing issues facing Imagua.

===Citizenship Act of 1947===
|-
In 1947, the ''Citizenship Act of 1938'' was amended with the ''Citizenship Act of 1947'', which formally extended Imaguan citizenship to those born on the [[Assimas Islands]] and those who resided there on 29 November, 1946 (when [[Etruria]] surrendered and lost the Assimas to Imagua), as well as prohibited any children born to "enemy occupiers" from ever gaining citizenship. As well, with Imagua due to become independent in April 1948, the ''Citizenship Act of 1947'' declared that Imaguan nationality was completely separate from Estmerish nationality, and that all references to "Estmerish subject" or "Estmerish citizen" in Imaguan legislation were to be treated as Imaguan nationals or Imaguan citizens, depending on the context of the legislation in question.

Over the next half-century, as the [[Estmere|Estmerish]] colonial empire disappeared, and the [[Council of Estmerish Language States]] established, the ''Citizenship Act of 1947'' became even more outdated, as subsection d of the second article stated that foreigners belonging to "Estmere, and its dependencies" were eligible for Imaguan permanent residency. As early as the 1970s, courts ruled that member states of the Council of Estmerish Language States were also eligible under subsection d, and beginning in the late 1990s, some courts were applying subsection d to include [[Asterian Forum for Development and Cooperation]] citizens. As well, calls for gender equality emerged, especially during the 1970s, and 1980s, as feminist groups criticised the fact that women cannot pass down citizenship.

In addition, the rights of adopted children were becoming an issue, particularly after 38-year old [[Joe Curtis]] was deported to [[Nuvania]] in 1993 after committing a murder: many criticised the decision to deport him as Curtis was adopted at a young age.

Finally, another issue was although the ''[[Native Integration Act]]'' did grant [[Native Imaguan people|Native Imaguans]] citizenship, it was unclear whether Native Imaguans were legally citizens of Imagua under the Citizenship Act. Thus, shortly after the election of [[Agnes Ingram]], she committed to addressing the issues with the ''Citizenship Act of 1947''.

First introduced on 10 January, 2005, the ''Citizenship Act of 2005'' was designed to address the concerns with the ''Citizenship Act of 1947''. Over the next several months, the legislation made its way through [[Parliament of Imagua and the Assimas|Parliament]], eventually being signed into law by [[President of Imagua and the Assimas|President]] [[Erico D'Antonio]] on 3 May, 2005.

This act granted citizenship to children adopted on or after 11 January, 1987, officially clarified the status of [[Native Imaguan people|Native Imaguans]] as Imaguan citizens, granted gender equality by allowing female citizens to pass on their citizenship to children born after the act's passage, and granted easier access to both {{wp|permanent residency}} and {{wp|citizenship}} to citizens of both [[Asterian Forum for Development and Cooperation]] and [[Community of Estmerish Language States]].
