Finntaire, officially called the Commonwealth of Finntaire (Finntairish: ''Comhlathas na Fíontír''), also archically known as Fintaire, Fintyr, and Fionterre, is a nation in the northwest of ..., bordering ... to the south, and ... to the west.

Initially inhabited by indigenous peoples, the !Scandinavians were the first Vreyans to settle in Finntaire in the 1000s, followed by Argallian fishermen in the 1470s, the latter of which quickly recognised the area as an important site for the hunting of cod and whales. This led to the creation of camps, which quickly became villages and then towns as more people arrived, not just for the fishing industry but to take part in fur trades, as well as to flee persecution back in Argaille. Following the Whitlandic Conquest of Argaille, Finntaire began to be administered as a colony, which was at odds with the autonomous guild-based leadership that had persisted since the first settlements. More Argallians arrived as a result of persecutions at home. Eventually by the 1640s, tensions grew too much between Argallian and Whitish settlements, and a Great Rising ensued where Argallians fought for greater freedoms.

Finntaire gets its name from a Whitlandization of the Finntairish "Fíontír", meaning "wine-land". This name was in reference to the many grapes and berries that Argallian fishers found when foraging for food and water in Finntaire. Before the arrival of the Argallian fishers, the area was known to the !Norse as "''Rautamannaland''" or "''Elveland''" as well as "''Skrælingiland''"; meaning "Red Man's Land", "River-land", and Skraelingland respectively. Initially Finntaire was known as the Islands of Saint Kieren, or ''Oileáin Naomh Ciarán'', but as further expeditions revealed the size of the land, the term "Fíontír" became much more popular in usage. | Finntaire gets its name from a Whitlandization of the Finntairish "Fíontír", meaning "wine-land".

[[image:tomasoflannagain.jpg|thumb| | By the late 1480s seasonal settlements had begun to be built on the shores of Finntaire, initially camps for foraging for berries, such as the wild grapes that gave Finntaire it's name, as well as for water and timber. The Guild soon recognised that drying fish before the return voyage would prevent the fish from spoiling before it came home, and so drying shacks began to be set up at these campsites. When attacks by the natives grew on account of a growing Vreyan presence, small forts were built around these drying houses and camps, manned by permanent guards and their families. This was the beginning of the first villages in Finntaire. In 1502, rumours about the discovery of a new island inspired the Tramontese merchant Marchionne Visconti, who quickly gained a commission from the crown of Whitland to explore the region, further increasing European presence. !Scandinavian realms, hearing the news, rediscovered the voyages of their ancestors, and also commissioned attempts to explore the region, with the !Norwegians setting up a colony in the north. Monasteries also began to be set up and some priests travelled to convert some of the natives and to administer to colonists. By the middle of the 16th century, the settlers numbered in the tens of thousands. | ||

When Whitland had completed its conquest of Argalle, the colony began to be administered under Whitish control, with a small fleet entering the colony and imposing their authority by force. The takeover of the colony by Whitland encouraged further settlement from Argallians, Whitish, Cumbrans, and others, with the Whitish happy to see them leave, and even encouraging it by the transport of prisoners.

Etymology
Finntaire gets its name from a Whitlandization of the Finntairish "Fíontír", meaning "wine-land". This name was in reference to the many grapes and berries that Argallian fishers found when foraging for food and water in Finntaire. Before the arrival of the Argallian fishers, the area was known to the !Norse as "Rautamannaland" or "Elveland" as well as "Skrælingiland"; meaning "Red Man's Land", "River-land", and Skraelingland respectively. Initially Finntaire was known as the Islands of Saint Kieren, or Oileáin Naomh Ciarán, but as further expeditions revealed the size of the land, the term "Fíontír" became much more popular in usage. Due to Whitish control, the word Fíontír entered the Whitish vocabulary and became Whiticized with no set spelling, which caused variations such as Fintyr, Fintyre, and Fionterre in colonial documents.
