"Botswana" is the name of the country and literally means "of Tswana". "Bo" meaning of or from. A person from Botswana is referred to as a Motswana. "Mo" pertaining to singular. Many people from Botswana are referred to as Batswana, Batswana is the plural of Motswana. "Ba" pertaining to plural. The most widely used language in the country is Setswana. The use of such words as "Botswanan" or "Botswanian" is actually incorrect and are never used in the country itself, a national of Botswana is referred to as a Motswana, nationals as Batswana. When referring to a product or item from Botswana you would merely describe it as a "Botswana product", not Botswanan or Botswanian etc.
