The Psalm 83 War has only just begun part four

What are the modern names of the nations of both the Edomites and the Ismaelites?
The modern nation of both the Moabites and the Ammonities is the nation of Jordan,
which directly boarders with Israel, and  has been involved in conflicts with it.

Present-day Edom is located in the southern region of the modern day Jordan. 
The descendants of Esau, who is associated with Edom, in the Bible are not
believed to have been destroyed.

Whatever happened to the Ishmaelities? The Ismaelities were a collection
of various Arab tribes, tribal confederations and small kingdoms described in 
Abrahamic tradition as being descendant from Ishmael.  Ishmael was of
mixed racial backgrounds. 

 His own father, Abraham was the founding Hebrew patriarch, founder of many 
nations.  Whereas, his Egyptian mother, Hagar was an Egyptian bond maiden to Abraham's legal wife Sarah. 

[ Esau was noted to take a wife from from the Ismaelitis and  the 
descendants of both Esau and Ishmael frequently intermarried
 with one another.]

The "Arabized Arabs" of central, western and North Arabia, descending from 
Ishmael, the eldest son of Abraham, [but not his legal heir because his mother, 
Hagar, was the Egyptian bond servant of Abraham's legal wife, Sarah.  The son
of a bond servant had no legal claim to the blessings of Abraham nor to any of his inheritance.] [But GOD made a separate convenient for him through his mother, 
Hagar.]

Through his descendants of Adar.  Such is the ancient tribe of Hawazion or the
modern day tribe of Otaibah and Mutayle.

Was Ishmael an ancestor to the Muslim,  Prophet of Muhammad the founder
of the religion of, Islam? Ismael is recognized by Muslims as the ancestor of
several northern prominent Arab tribes and the forefather of Adan, the ancestor
of Muhammad was the descendant of Ishmael who would establish a great
nation. 

Part of the modern-day conflict started with two twin brothers of Esau and Jacob.
First Jacob took the first born blessings from Esau for a bowel of lintel soup be
cause of his hunger.  Second, coached by his mother Rebekah,  he disguised
himself as Esau and took away his first born birth right.  Esau vowed to kill 
Jacob just as soon as their father Issac was dead. 

Another part  started between Sarah and her Egyptian bond servant, Hagar.
Sarah gave her to her husband, Abraham, and she conceived and bore his
first born son, Ishmael.
