Bonjour. On the test I took "Il y a un Indien et une Indienne, why are they capitalized. I thought nationalities in french were not capitalized.

Hi Claudia,

If you look a the note in the lesson for the case of nationalities , if it is an adjective there is no capital letter, e.g.

Elle est indienne, il est français...

But if it is a noun, i.e. the inhabitant of that country there is a capital letter .

Elle c'est une Française, lui, c'est un Espagnol...

Hope this helps!
