Before the creation of the nation-state in europe, all of the following were common except:
a.
brides often brought territory with them in marriage
b.
citizens in many countries spoke many languages
c.
borders between countries were stable and rarely moved
d.
countries were home to dozens of ethnic groups

The correct answer is C) borders within states were stable and rarely moved.

Before the creation of nation-state in Europe, what was not a common thing was that borders within states were stable and rarely moved.

Before nations were sovereign in Europe, citizens did not really belong to a specific place at all. That is why they speak many languages and they did not have an identity. The scenario in Europe was that countries had many different ethnicities in the same territory. They came from very different parts of the continent. This situation changed constantly when brides brought new territories with her marriage. The only scenario that was not common before the creation of nation-state in Europe, what was not a common thing was that borders within states were stable and rarely moved.
