A person who is legally recognized by tradition or law as belonging to a sovereign nation or as having pledged loyalty to a government in return for that government's protection, whether at home or abroad, is said to be a citizen of that nation. One of the main cornerstones of a nation is its citizens. They are required to follow its laws and perform their tasks as required, and they are entitled to all the legal rights and advantages that a state grants to the citizens who make up its constituency. Each of us has a number of rights and obligations toward our neighborhood, state, and nation as a citizen.
Thank you,

<span>Jefferson’s basic elements of the argument for separation were
lack of respect. Furthermore, he framed the arguments in a way that shows that the
violation of economic and political rights that the Colonists have had to
suffer were the result of a lack of respect. Jefferson is empathizes with the
British government in how they have refused to "assent" to the basic
principles of dignity and decency that would eventually enable a successful
relationship and partnership to develop.</span>
