Here in Brazil, stereotypes are an important "source of humor". We see many jokes based on stereotypes here, all kinds of stereotypes.... Stereotypes related to professions (lawyer, doctor, nurse, politician, farmer, soccer player), stereotypes related to regional origin within Brazil, stereotypes related to neighborhoods within some major cities, etc...
In Russia;
Government, bureaucracy, politics, economy, men/women relations, family life, national characteristics and lately I've noticed - Americans))))
Ethnic jokes were popular when I was growing up in an extremely ethnically diverse area back in the 80s, but I can't say I have heard more than a couple in 25 years or more.

There are still some comedians doing ethnic humor I happen to like some of it. I agree there used to be more I graduated from HS in 88.

Oh, I agree there is some ethnic humor (especially by ethnic minorities), but the old one-liners like "How do you get a one armed Pole out of a tree? Wave." have mostly seen their day.
For Nigeria- Daily Life, Abuja along with other cities, Famous Nigerians, Politicians, Americans, Americanized Africans, The U.K, Tribal People, Muslim Traditions, Christian traditions, Nigerian Megachurches, Most of the major ethnic groups and probably a joke for at least 100 of the minor ones and Lagos Neighborhoods.
In Italy it is certainly politics, followed by everyday life, man/woman relationship, grammar and at the end stereotypes.
Ethnic jokes would probably even be considered offensive in a few contexts
