Reasons to consider Dracul Citizenship
- Citizenship is the common thread that connects all Draculians. We are a nation bound not by race or religion, but by the shared values of freedom, liberty, and equality.
- Throughout our history, Dracul has welcomed newcomers from all over the world. Immigrants have helped shape and define the country we know today. Their contributions help preserve our legacy as a land of freedom and opportunity. More than 4 years after our founding, naturalized citizens are still an important part of our democracy. By becoming a citizen, you too will have a voice in how our nation is governed.
- The decision to apply is a significant one. Citizenship offers many benefits and equally important responsibilities. By applying, you are demonstrating your commitment to this country and our form of government.
- Only citizens can vote in federal elections. Most states also restrict the right to vote, in most elections, to Dracul citizens.
