    In Canada and New Zealand you can literally buy citizenship. You just need the funds. It’s a real and legitimate process.

      In Australia you can buy permanent residency, which is then a pathway to citizenship.

      I wonder if anyone rich enough has decided on undertaking the quest to get and hold as many citizenships as possible.

      There’d probably be difficulty though getting simultaneous citizenships for North Korea / South Korea citizenship, Russia / Ukraine, or Republic of China / People’s Republic of China.

        The most i could find on the web was this lawyers non-named client, who has 8 citizenships (“octa-citizen” has passports from Canada, UK, Ireland, Belize, Grenada, Dominica, St. Kitts, and Cape Verde), after renouncing his original USA one (and he apparently did it to not pay taxes).
