Morphology

Liechtensteiner = Liechtenstein (transparent) = Liechtenstein + er

Formed by the productive demonym/adjectival suffix '-er' added to the country name, so the relation to Liechtenstein is directly derived.

Etymology

Liechtensteiner comes from the country name Liechtenstein, which is made of the German parts Licht 'light' and stein 'stone' and was first the name of a castle and a family, like a 'bright stone' place. So, Liechtensteiner is used for things or people from Liechtenstein.
