"Citizenship is membership in a political society and implies a duty of allegiance on the part of the member and a duty of protection on the part of the society. These are reciprocal obligations, one being a compensation for the other. " LURIA v. UNITED STATES (10/20/13) 231 U.S. 9, 58 L. Ed. 101, 34 S. Ct. 10
