Speakers of the Caronian language constitute a minority of the population in several large countries. An international body has recommended that the regions where Caronian-speakers live be granted autonomy as an independent nation in which Caronian-speakers would form a majority. But Caronian-speakers live in several, wildly scattered areas that cannot be united within a single continuous boundary while at the same time allowing Caronian-speakers to be the majority population. Hence, the recommendation cannot be satisfied.
The argument relies on which one of the following assumptions?
(A) A nation once existed in which Caronian-speakers formed the majority of the population.
(B) Caronian-speakers tend to perceive themselves as constituting a single community.
(C) The recommendation would not be satisfied by the creation of a nation formed of disconnected regions.
(D) The new Caronian nation will not include as citizens anyone who does not speak Caronian.
(E) In most nations several different languages are spoken.

Stimulus: carnonian speakers are minority in several large countries. The author recommends that we should grant caronian speakers autonomy as an independent nation where the caronian speakers could become majority but caronian speakers live in several widely scattered regions cannot be united with single continuous boundary at the same time allowing caronian speakers to be majority of population.
The assumption the author makes is a nation cannot be formed by disconnected regions
