Ashkenazis, or German Jews. They are found in Germanic and Slavic countries, and have origins in Germany. They are also found in France, as well as in the Jewish diaspora (United States, Australia, etc.). They are the largest Jewish people in Israel, as well as the largest in the world!
Saphardis, or Spanish Jews. These Jews are found in Spain, Portugal, France and North Africa. Many were persecuted in Spain and left to the north (France) and the south (North Africa). They are the second largest Jewish group, in both Israel and the world.
Mizrahis, or Middle Eastern Jews. They are found in the Middle East and North Africa. A subgroup of this group are the Yemenite Jews. They are the third largest Jewish group, and sometimes seen as the "purest" (most Jewish). This is due to the fact that Jews around the world look very similar to the majority non-Jewish ethnic group in the same country. Two other subgroups that are based on linguistic/cultural background are the Arab Jews, Kurdish Jews, Persian Jews and Berber Jews.
Those are the three largest groups. There are smaller groups of European Jews, African Jews, Indian Jews and Chinese Jews, including:
Bene Roma (Italian Jews) - not the only Jews in Italy, there are also Ashkenazi/Saphardi Italians.
Romaniotes (Greek Jews)
Indian Jews - Cochin Jews (Malayali Jews), Bene Israel (Marathi Jews), Baghdadi Jews (Arab/Marathi Jews), Bnei Menashe (Mizo and Kuki Jews) and finally Bene Ephraim, or Telugu Jews.
Kaifeng Jews (Chinese Jews)
Georgian Jews
Armenian Jews
Mountain Jews (Azeri and Dagestani Jews)
Bukhari Jews
Beta Israel (Ethiopian Jews)
Regardless of how big the world is, there aren't that many different ethnic groups: Hispanic, European/Anglo, Arabic, African, Asian, Native American, and various indigenous tribes (e.g., Australian Aboriginies).
Most ethnic groups double as national groups in different regions. Some examples include: Germans, Poles, Russians, Spaniards, Amazigh (Berbers), Arabs, Han Chinese, Korean, Kurds, Turks.

No. Mormonism is a Restorationist Christian religious movement. Followers of Mormonism come from many different ethnic groups around the world. It is true that some religious groups can double as ethnic groups (such as Judaism - although you can be an ethnic Jew but not a religious Jew, or religiously Jewish but not ethnically Jewish) but Mormonism has not had the thousands of years of intermarrying required to become an ethnic group.
Some similarities are that some ethnic groups forced other ethnic groups to move out of their area and go back to their own ethnic group.

Thailand's population is predominantly made up of Thai people, with smaller ethnic minorities including Chinese, Malay, and indigenous groups such as Karen and Hmong. There is also a significant population of expatriates from various countries living in Thailand.
Slavs and to some degree negroes. Depending on whether you consider them ethnic groups or religious groups: Jews, Roma. __________ Actually, the bit about Slavs needs qualifying. If they did the Nazis' bidding and were 'Western' in outlook and Roman Catholic, they were not persecuted. For example, Slovakia and Croatia were allies of Nazi Germany.
