Comment #1: Further proposals
Curtis W Franks (Thu Feb 13 23:43:36 2014)

This is a list of other words for Native American groups that I submit for
consideration. For all of them, I am not very familiar with their
endonyms. I also am proposing these in gismu form, even though I do not
necessarily advocate that any of them become Lojbanized as gismu (fu'ivla
are most likely); I put them in this form for a sense of how they would
appear/result when in Lojban, more than anything else. I am also not
guaranteeing that any of these even work as brivla morphologically- I was
just approximating pronunciation and form without too much thought since
this is a first pass.

Don't we have something like ISO for nations?

I honestly do not know. For their languages, certainly, but that only
goes so far. I will look into it.

Currently, jbovlaste will accept data for 70 languages.
