If it were up to me there there wouldn't be Mordors, nor Argentinians or
Boers, or even Americans or Canadians.  Spanish/Iberian, yes;
Dutch/Flemish, yes; Zulu, maybe; English/British, yes.  A culture that
is recognizable only because of borders on a map, or that has existed
for only 200 or 300 years, doesn't count.

But that's just my two piastres.  My opinion wasn't solicited on which
nations to include in the canonical set <grin>.
