Depending on the specific homeland, it can be a mix of both (many nations have official religions) - and other things besides. So too with groups. For example, the Turkish people - whose homeland is Turkey - are a linguistic group (they are Turkish speakers), an ethnic group (they share common Turkish geneology, culture, and ancestry), and as of 1923 are the citizenry of the then-created country of Turkey.

Interesting you should mention Turkey...that brings up another "lost tribe": the Kurds. They have no homeland, but claim some territory from several nations (including Turkey and Iraq).

A little closer to home, how about the Seminoles? Their homeland was Oklahoma. No more. All of the native Americans were displaced, and put on the crappiest land the US government could find. They have no hope of achieving recovery of their land (i.e. the whole of the continental US, and at least parts of Canada).

At some point, the homeland is lost. You have to move on or perish. I'm not saying that is the case here, but at what point will it be the case?
