I’m not sure what’s best here. Nationality feels like the right thing to me, but
as you say some people could reasonably check two or even three of them.
However, I’d consider a list of 237 checkboxes to be pretty bad (as opposed to
the current single-select dropdown menu). Would it be unreasonable to ask for a
primary nationality, if that works for 99% of people that may be good enough
overall for us.

All the best,
Timothy
