You will have to get that information from the specific country you will be going to. They are different from country to country.

What does "citizenship and such" mean???
You can live in, for example, Mexico the rest of your life without getting citizenship. It gets harder if you don't have legal residency of some sort.
But, out in the boonies, you can probably go with a 180 day tourist permit and if you have money enough could stay the rest of your life because probably no one will ask for your papers.
Of course, car drivers are more likely to need to show papers. To use a bank, you would need to show papers.
Still it might be possible if you keep a low profile.
Then, with a bit of money, you could probably buy a valid birth certificate from the local registrar and be set for life.

I am assuming you are an American wanting to travel abroad. Unlike US, most countries are far more restrictive.
It really depends on which country and for what reason you are wanting to live, but usually, obtaining any kind of work permit or residency permit is extremely difficult. Some countries do not even have the "green card" (permanent residency) system that you have to go from one form of VISA to another, and even that is difficult to obtain.
The punishment for illegally staying is also a lot harsher in countries other than US.
The best thing you can do is to contact the consulate office of the country and ask what is possible for your intended visit.

Are you looking to live in a non-expediting country lol? Otherwise,you can live in Canada without getting citizenship. And if you want to get citizenship in Canada you only have to live there 7 years.

As long as you have the correct documentation (green card, foreign worker certification) I think you can live in most countries indefinately. I'm sure it depends on the country - and keeping up on the paperwork can be a big drain on your time and energy.

It depends on the country's laws regarding resident aliens.
