The Norse Territory of Finla (Finlaesk Nódbᵫ́ð Fínlǣ /noːdbyːð viːnlæ̃/, Rygsnors Norsjobygd Vínlan) was first established around 1000CE in what is nathistorically the northern tip of Newfoundland. The original name Vínland applied to a loosely-defined region centered on the first small settlement at the modern capital Bǽnnfekk /baːnvek/ (orig. Bjarnivík). By 1100CE, Bjarnivík was well established as a self-sustaining permenent settlement, and the borders of Vínland were fairly well-defined.
