You can add an evernote link as the author link. Perhaps that is what you said.

Calibre does not support adding information per author other than the author link. That will not change anytime soon. I also suspect that you will find that you want more information per author than just the nationality such a bibliography, multiple links describing the author, the author's web site, a photo, your opinion of the author, and so on.

You can use a custom column, behaves like tags, contains names column to enter the nationality of authors for a book. You would enter the nationalities in the same order as the author names. Because the column is "contains names" the order will be preserved. Of course you would be required to do this for every book, not every author, which is a *lot* more work.
