This is not just European thing. It’s the most common option around the world

It’s just that some countries also offer citizenship to those born on their land.

Even US, which is famous for offering citizenship to all born on its soil practices citizenship by blood. As child of US citizens born outside the US can get citizenship like Rafael Edward Cruz, also known as Ted Cruz, who was born in Canada.
