Wikipedia defines nationality as "the legal status of belonging to a particular nation, defined as a group of people organized in one country, under one legal jurisdiction, or a group of people who are united by a common culture, history, traditions, and awareness of a common origin." Browsing by nationality shows how transport innovation clustered in certain countries at certain times.
