Which of the following best completes the passage below?
Some anthropologists theorize that no great city-state has ever been conquered without first being rife with internal conflict. Recently, evidence has been discovered that a great city-state, known as Archaic C, was sacked and occupied by a rival city-state in the first millennium BC. Therefore, if the anthropologists’ theory is correct, we can say that_______.
(A) after Archaic C was sacked and occupied, internal divisions remained in the region.
(B) no internal divisions ever existed in Archaic C.
(C) Archaic C was not truly a great city-state.
(D) Archaic C suffered from internal conflict at some point in the first millennium BC or earlier.
(E) Archaic C was not the first great city-state to be conquered by outside forces.

Option D.
Archaic C must have experienced internal conflict during the first millennium BC or earlier, in accordance with the anthropologists' theory that no great city-state is conquered without first having internal strife.
