Bonus Showerthought: If your parents are from two different jus sanguinus countries, you could end up with 4 citizenships!
Now if your grandparents are all from different countries… and allows you to claim citizenship by ancestry…
Okay just how many citizenships could one theoretically obtain at birth? Hmmm 🤔

You also need to factor in countries with mutually exclusive citizenships

…as well as the fact that some countries in theory allow multiple citizenships but in practice only their own country’s. Iran is a prominent example. If you have Iranian birthright citizenship, it matters little if you have a second or third one: the minute you set foot in Iran (which is presumably not something that people are doing a lot these days), you will be treated as an Iranian, and if you break the law, you will be tried just as every other Iranian.
