A '''national adjective''' describes something as being from that country, for example, "[[Caphirian cuisine]]" is "cuisine of [[Caphiria]]". A '''demonym''' denotes the people or the inhabitants of or from there, for example, "[[Capetians]]" are people of or from [[the Cape]]. Most demonyms and national adjectives are {{wp|Morphological derivation|derivatives}} of the name of the country to which they relate, but there are exceptions.
