In general, you have to be born into one and related to another.
For example, if you are born in the US, you would automatically receive US citizenship. However, there are other countries that will also recognize that you are citizen of their country because one of your parents is their citizen. Thus, you have dual citizenship.
However, most are forced to choose upon their majority.
Most countries, if you naturalize to their citizenship, you are required to renounce any claims to prior citizenship of any other country. US is no exception.

Well, I have dual citizenship because I was born in the USA, but my husbands grandparents were born in Sicily... so we applied!
Do you have any relatives from another country?
