[-an] Morocco, Germany = Moroccan, German
[-ese] Portugal, China = Portuguese, Chinese

The English Language, where the grammar is made up and the rules don’t matter.
I can add:
[-er] New Zealander
Or just a different word completely. Dutch.
Pfft. The Dutch…
New Zealand -> Kiwi.
Only in the same way Australia -> Aussie, or England -> pom. Colloquial terms
Newfoundlander
Odd way to spell Kiwi but you do you pal
Booo I’ma still say New Zealish
New Zealot
for aiur
Adun toridas.
New Zealander is the least odd sounding of the lot.
New Zealandish
New Zealandan
New Zealandese?
