Where Hard and Soft African are artificial constructs based on the sounds that occur in names, but with some correlation between Hard African with Eastern African nations. (Note that some, particular North-Eastern, African nations are classified as Arab). Romanian and Pakistani may be difficult to identify in some datasets but do appear to be recognisably unique in sufficient volume. The various [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavic_peoples Slavic definitions] do not tie precisily to their accepted geographical and linguistic definitions but are suitably close as to be used.
The source file was not sufficiently detailed for many countries for them to be included in the classification. This does not constitute a problem. The definition file for this classification system ([http://www.edegan.com/repository/Culture-EganClassification.txt Culture-EganClassification.txt]) uses [[UN GeoRegion Codes | UN recognized country names]] and excludes unclassifiable countries.
