Answer to Question 1

Answer: D

Answer to Question 2

There are many similarities between the two. In both cases, members of the same group identified with others because of shared language, culture, history, and so on. Likewise, in both cases groups fought with some neighboring groups and formed alliances with others. There are major differences, however. In the case of African tribes, many faced enslavement and forced removal from their territories, while others endured colonialism. Nations is Europe, by and large, did not experience this; indeed, they were the ones who colonized and enslaved much of Africa.
