I doubt anyone here knows the answer to this, and I imagine it varies a lot around the world - but how does citizenship by descent work long term?
For example, my ancestors moved from the UK and Switzerland to Australia in the mid 1800s.
The children born here were most likely able to have the citizenship of their parents (complications of Australia being British back then anyway aside), how far does this extend? Can citizenship just be passed down from generation to generation this way?
I don't really give a shit, but it's just something I was curious about.

It's just an academic question, I'm not moving to your sharia continent.

I figured, I've just found it hard to really find any writing on the matter, it seems to be just an assumed thing without any legal context from what I can gather.

>Islam in Australia is a minority religious affiliation. According to the 2016 Australian Census, the combined number of people who self-identified as Muslim in Australia, from all forms of Islam, constituted 604,200 people, or 2.6% of the total Australian population,

We are literally having a constitutional crisis because of muh citizenship, which is why foreign citizenship is in the news here and is why OP is curious.
Section 44 of our constitution, among other things, forbids sitting members of the federal parliament from being citizens of a foreign power. This was all fine while Australians were British subjects (which for the purposes of S44 was up until the 50s almost) but started to be a pain in the 1990s when the High Court started strictly defining a foreign power as any country other than Australia and a bunch of countries loosened their definitions of automatic citizenship by descent because muh diaspora muh international law muh westerners can't keep their dicks in their pants

yes, even the US had a stabbing not long ago. it's evident, however, that the risk of getting victimized by a muzzie terrorist attack is much greater in australia. were we to take all of mama merkel's pets in, we'd still have proportionately less muslims than you. finland (i bet norway too) is safer in respect to terror threats compared to australia. look up any source if you think i'm making this up
Don't know about Swiss, but I think British citizenship only goes down to grandparents
If you have relatives born on the Island of Ireland, you can get citizenship from your great grandparents but it requires certain people to have taken up Irish citizenship at some point
