Countries and nationalities

Here are some names of countries. You can refer to someone from that country by adding 사람, for example 일본 사람 "Japanese person".

한국 Korea
일본 Japan
중국 China
영국 England
독일 Germany
스페인 Spain
러시아 Russia
아일랜드 Ireland
프랑스 France
말레이시아 Malaysia
미국 America

The story that the slur "gook" came from 국 may not be true.
