People from samaria

but i think now a days people are called samaritans if they did a good thing because of the story in The Bible where there was a guy on the road that had just gotten beat up and ppl from near by citys wouldn't help him but a samaritan came and put him in his donkey and helped him and i think that's where it comes from.

What is the difference in a Samaritan and a Samarian?

Samaritans are an offshoot sect of Judaism that live primarily in Samaria. It may be that Samaria is named after Samaritans, or visa versa, but even 2000 years ago, there were more non-Samaritans living in Samaria than there were Samaritans, and the word Samarian can be used for any resident of that land. Today, there are about 2000 Samaritans living in Israel and the West Bank, all within an easy trip from their sacred mountain, Mount Gezarim, which is near Nablus.
