The original was offensive in its nationalism
The original assumed that states own those they declare as citizens, and assumed that an actual "duty" of some sort is "owed" to the state. I changed the wording in an attempt to achieve neutrality, but I think it is clumsy and welcome alternative suggestions. --Silverback 10:28, 2 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Link suggestions
An automated Misplaced Pages link suggester has some possible wiki link suggestions for the Allegiance article, and they have been placed on this page for your convenience.
Tip: Some people find it helpful if these suggestions are shown on this talk page, rather than on another page. To do this, just add {{User:LinkBot/suggestions/Allegiance}} to this page. — LinkBot 10:33, 17 Dec 2004 (UTC)
