In which of the following places would you most likely experience the greatest level of political security? A. a multinational state B. a sovereign state C. a state that is being annexed D. a stateless nation

Answers

You would definitely not expect political stability in a state that is being annexed or which does not have a territory - rather the opposite would be true.
