Arabia
e.rev denotes Arabia in geographic and royal lists, and a mixed group among larger populations.
The attested uses divide evenly between Arabia named among lands or their kings and a mixed group present within a larger population. The same singular absolute noun form occurs in both settings, so the supplied verses do not mark the distinction morphologically.
