In Britain and most other monarchies, the term "citizen" is used less often than subject. The latter word emphasizes the subordinate position of the individual relative to the monarch; however, as monarchs retain few personal political powers under constitutional monarchy, there is little practical distinction between citizen and subject. The category of British subject includes the citizens of the independent states of the Commonwealth, but a British subject is not entitled to citizenship in any particular Commonwealth country unless he qualifies under its citizenship laws. A Canadian citizen, for instance, automatically is a British subject, but a British subject from Britain, Australia, India, or from another of the Commonwealth nations may become a Canadian citizen only by meeting Canadian naturalization requirements.
