If a country name ends in IA, the nationality ends in IAN.

Many nationalities are formed by adding ESE.

- JAPAN becomes JAPANESE
Another group of countries, whose names end in AND, have nationalities that end in ISH.
Sometimes the last consonant is doubled before you add the ISH.
- ENGLAND becomes ENGLISH

The rules are so mixed that the nationalitiy for each country should be learnt individually.
