Reality.They were always thereHowever, so was their king/prince/bishop/psychotic hard-case who was given the land by a king or violently deposed the last one.

Ottomans ruling over Turks (and lots of others)Gradually, groups of people, with ethnic commonalities and historical ties to geographic spaces become nations This is ongoing, and has caused MILLIONS of deaths.
1500By 1500 three nation states have emerged from the chaos and change that occurred after the fall of Rome (476 C.E.). Still most of Europe was heavily fragmented. Modern historical review states this as one of the long-term advantages of western Eurasia over East Asia.
