hylain vs human

in all the games with hyrule, the main race is obviously hylian, but in games like wind waker, where there is no hyrule, are the people just human?

Anyone with pointed ears are either Hylian or part-Hylian. Anyone with round ears are not.

hylian is a race ("humans" with pointy ears)
hyrulian is a nationality (people who live in hyrule)
human is a race (normal boring humanoids)

destruction of hyrule got rid of a nationality, the hyrulians, since that was it's definition. Hylians and Humans still exist in WW, but they've crossbred into a generic humanoid race.

Ex. If Their is no Kurdistan there are still Kurds
