Not every country gives citizenship to people born there.
There are two basic models:
citizenship by soil
citizenship by blood
In some countries you can be a 3rd or 4th generation resident but not have citizenship if none of your ancestors had citizenship.
In other countries you can be a citizen even if neither you nor any of your parents or grandparents actually lived in the country, but you have an ancestor who did.

Yes, but I didn’t say that’s how citizenship works in every country.
