No. It is not necessary that a state Citizen,
residing in a foreign country, must lose His
state Citizenship. The questions of domicile,
and loss thereof, have arisen more often in
cases involving federal citizens, who have been
told they lose their state citizenship when
they "reside" outside the state zone. However,
American citizenship stays with the traveller,
and state Citizenship stays with the traveller
for this reason. Your freedom of choice,
and the actions you take to expatriate or not,
are what determine the loss, or retention, of
your primary state Citizenship. Remember that
state Citizenship is a fundamental birthright,
and Congress can do nothing whatsoever to
infringe upon ANY of your fundamental Rights,
particularly your Citizenship. It is
unalienable, all the more so when you review
the two human rights treaties -- with this
particular question in mind. Treat yourself
to a careful reading of both treaties, and
you will discover, to your great delight,
that Citizenship is sacrosanct. Just to
illustrate, the failed ratification of the
14th amendment does NOT mean that blacks
cannot be state Citizens; racial discrimination
in the matter of Citizenship is strictly
prohibited by these same two treaties.

I hope this helps.
