{'marco polo': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'traveller': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'italy': [14, 5, 13, 11], '2j': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'turkey': [0, 0, 0, 3], 'ibn battuta': [1, 0, 0, 0], 'morocco': [2, 0, 2, 9], 'seydi ali reis': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'russia': [0, 0, 1, 1], 'country': [27, 2, 36, 66]}

The correct answer is option 3: 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Let`s dissect each option to understand which pairs are correctly matched:

1. Marco Polo - Italy: Marco Polo was an Italian traveller.

2. Ibn Battuta - Morocco: Ibn Battuta was a Moroccan traveller.

3. Nikitin - Russia: There seems to be an error in this option, as Nikitin, also known as Afanasy Nikitin, was a Russian merchant and traveller who explored India during the 15th century. Therefore, this pair is not correctly matched.

4. Seydi Ali Reis - Turkey: Seydi Ali Reis, also known as Seydi Ali Reis the Younger, was an Ottoman admiral and navigator from Turkey. This pair is correctly matched.

Since option 3 includes the correctly matched pairs of Marco Polo - Italy, Ibn Battuta - Morocco, Nikitin - Russia (an incorrect match), and Seydi Ali Reis - Turkey, it is the correct answer.

Alert - The correct answer should be option 2: 2 and 3 only. This is because Nikitin, as mentioned earlier, was from Russia, not Italy or Turkey.
