Just for further clarification on this, there are 40 ethnicities available for OOTP (counting #0 for the modern U.S.). The biggest reason why we probably won't see that number increase is that it would require a massive rewrite of the game's code.
Apparently, those ethnicities are pivotal to the game on many levels, and to expand them would be a huge undertaking that the developers don't see the value in tackling.
In reality, while there are modders and gamers like us that enjoy creating fictional worlds or experimenting with alternative ethnicities to enhance realism, the vast majority of paying customers are probably just looking for something that resembles real life and gets close enough to do the job.
