A couple of us were talking about what sort of collective nouns could be used for different nationalities (in an entirely cliched and non-PC kind of way) and, being Aussies, we started with (for us) the obvious "Mob of Australians". We then thought up these:

a scrum of Kiwis
a queue of English
a pint of Irish
a pride of Germans
a clutch of Italians
a school of Chinese
a gaggle of Greeks
a litre of Russians
a herd of Americans
a line of Columbians
a parade of Brazilians
a running of Spaniards

Any more ideas?
