Adjectives of nationality and geographical origin (and a collection of little bowls from around the world)

I was at my parents' house for a few days. My mom has a collection of little bowls from different parts of the world, so I said to myself, "Why not make a video about this?" and so I did.
 
Here's the link to the video I made:

☘︎ Did you notice from the video that all the adjectives of nationality and geographic origin that are mentioned end in "an”, "ish" or "ese”?


Adjectives of nationality and geographic origin that end in:

☘︎–"an": Namibian, Chilean, Romanian, Bulgarian, Ecuadorian, Italian, Canadian, Peruvian, Bolivian, Australian, American, etc.

☘︎ –"ish": Turkish, English, Scottish, British (from the UK), Spanish, etc.

☘︎ –"ese": Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, Burmese, etc.


A few end in –"i" as well:

☘︎ –"i": Qatari, Somali, Iraqi, etc.


Which adjectives of nationality are irregular (don’t match any of the word endings above)?

Which was your favorite bowl?
I like the Japanese bowl because it’s the only one that I added to the collection. ^_^
