Write the name of the country according to present boundaries and borders. The borders of many countries have changed due to wars and we are interested in the name of the present country in which the locality the person was born in is found, not the country it was in at the time of birth.
For persons born in Israel, circle answer no. 1 and skip to question 10.

Notice!
Persons born in Israel are persons who were born in Israel according to British mandate borders and persons born in the territories occupied, or that were occupied by the IDF.
