Alliteration is pretty much when the starting bits of all the words in a sentence, or of words in succession, are all the same or sound the same.

Poetry is a writing style so it has a lot of things, it has rhyming yes, but sometimes is also has alliteration because its a literature technique. And other things. It's not just rhyming, some poems don't even have rhymes in them.

See. I have done some research. suffix like er, an, ian, ish, ese, represent people of certain thing.
Is there any logic on which to apply? Like. why Portugal is Portugese? Turkey is Turkish? Asia is Asian? Canada is Canadian?

I'm not sure if there is actually any logic to it, because when I learnt about nationalities as such growing up, I just learnt the suffixed word (more by other people using it, then from just school) and not why it was written like that. English is pretty weird like that.
There probably is, but I haven't learnt it specifically. Sorry
Maybe someone who's better at English could tell you, I'm only in grade 11 Studies
Otherwise you're just going to have to hit and miss for it.

Ah, prefixes and suffixes... I can't really remember what the rules are. I'm sure you could find an explanation online though.

I'm sorry I'm not sure of the rules
I'm sure though, if you have me some names I'd probably be able to tell you their suffixed form 8'D
That's about all I could do for you

Probably.
I never actually thought about the suffixes for countries before.

I think the countries that end in a vowel get the -ian ending. Like Mexico - Mexican and Canada - Canadian but there might be some exceptions.

That's what I was thinking, but Mexico is Mexican not Mexician. That happens for a lot of them . You can never be sure which ones -ian and which ones just -an.
I'm pretty sure who ever decided them, just used what ever made it sound the best XD

I'm now realising that French isn't actually as hard as I thought it was when I compare it to English.

The continent name is Wheistadeur.
Ingwar, Wayinne Isles, Luxror.
Astrophe, Eterledge, NICE.
Misphissity, Delvieve.
Don't mind the breaks, it is my way of categorizing them. XD

Alright then 8).
I'll give you a list of what I think they would be:
Wheistadeurians
Ingwarians
Wayinne Isles (I think you can just add people or folk here, because other wise it will sound a little weird)
Luxrorers
Astrophites
Eterledgens
Was Nice a place or?
Misphissitans
Delvievians
I hope that's alright.

NICE is the abbreviation for Nirvirille Iv Chandair Empire.
It is normally known as NICE. XD Yes, I purposely abbreviate it like that. The people of NICE, like everything nice. XD Mostly on art. And only those kind of people would come out with such ridiculous name for a country. XD
Mine is.
Wheistadian
Ingwarians
Waying
Luxrorian
Astrophian
Eterledgian
NICEan
Misphissitian
Delvian.
Ahahaha! I find it interesting to find out how to call my people. Thanks. It is fun and somehow interesting to read it out.
