Excerpt: ...but the general principle applied has been that persons habitually resident in ceded territory acquire if so facto the nationality of the State to which the territory has been transferred, and lose the nationality of the ceding State. Nevertheless such persons, if over eighteen years old, may opt for their old nationality, and if they exercise this option, their choice covers a wife and any children under eighteen years of age. They must, however, in that case remove to the territory of their old State.2 1 The important question whether subjects of the ceding States who are born on the ceded territory but have their domicile abroad beoome ipeo facto by the cession subjects of the acquiring State, must, I think, be answered in the negative, unless special treaty arrangements stipulate the contrary. Therefore, Frenchmen born in Alsaoe but domiciled at the time of the cession in Great Britain, would not have lost their French citizenship through the cession to Germany but for Artiole 1, part 2, of the additional treaty of Dec. U, 1871, to the Peace Treaty of Frankfort. (Martens, N. R. O., xx. p. 847.) See Bonfils, No. 427, and Cogordan, La NationalM, eto. (1890), p. 361 2 See for example Treaty of Peace with Germany, Articles 36 and 37. with regard to German territory ceded to Belgium. The general principle is there, and indeed in most oases, applied subject to an exception.
