Note
A plural that exists only on the countable side of an abstract noun. Citizenship as a condition, the state of belonging as a citizen, takes no plural. Once it means one particular status held in one particular state, it can be counted, compared and stacked. So a person may value citizenship but hold two citizenships, and the plural usually signals that more than one state is involved.
