Citizenship/nationality
There are two words in the application form: citizenship/nationality? I guess they mean the same: the legal right to be a citizen of a particular country. Is there any reason for indicating both words in the same document?

Sometimes the two terms have the same meaning and can be interchanged, but other times there is a difference in meaning. That is, 'Nationality' sometimes is used to refer to a person's place of birth or origins, whereas 'citizenship' doesn't imply this. Citizenship solely says you have certain legal rights granted to you.
So if I said I was a french national, but an Australian citizen, I am implying I was born in France or my origins are there but I have the 'rights' of Australian citizenship. BUT, often the two terms are interchanged, so context of the document is important.

I think it is to give more clarity. They mean the same for all practical purposes.
