Uínlīta

The Norse Territory of Finla (natively Nódbᵫ́ð Fínlǣ /noːdbyːð viːnlæ̃/) 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.

Internal Geopolitics

States

Finla is subdivided into the states of Fínlǣ "proper", Mákklǣ /mɑːklæ̃/, Œlulǣ /ølulæ̃/, and Hrǽlīlǣ /ɹ̥aːlĩlã/ (or Hlǽllitt Nunátt /ɬaːl:it nunɑːt/).

Government

Finla is a Norse Territory, and shares the usual division of power between the Federal Rigssál (in Goððēbúg), and a Territorial Rigssál located in Bǽnnfekk.

Languages

The official language of government (as in the rest of the Norse Lands) is Rygsnors.

The majority colloquial language is Finlaesk.

Additional minority languages include Hibernic, Bœ́wðukk, Hrǽlisk (or Hlǽttittútt), English, Norn, and Scots.
