Your assumption is wrong.
The UK is anything but homogeneous, Scotland can’t wait to leave, the north Irish were also recently thinking of rejoining Ireland.
Spain was on the brink of separating 3 years ago.
Looking at eastern europe – Poland is pretty solid, the rest of the countries mostly have Russians peppered, partly thanks to Stalin.
But there’s also a lot to thank population movement pre nationalism (think of how Germans were spread throughout Europe and how Hitler used that).
There’s also some to thank border marking. If there is a Polish population living in a place, why is it part of Ukraine and not Poland? (Ruhr as an exampke for this in western Europe).
