I am a citizen of the US. Both of my parents moved here from Greece and are now US citizens. I want to live in Greece for a year or so and I figured I would have to be a citizen of Greece. Would I end up losing my US citizenship? How would I go about getting a dual citizenship, is my first question. And second, if I had children would my children be considered dual citizens or would they just be citizens of the country I gave birth to them in? Hopefully someone can help me! Thanks!

Just to live in another county doesn't requie citizenship of that county. Just look at all the non citizens living in the US right now.

I was under the impression that you actually had to be a citizen.. and yes you are very right about people living here..
