Etymology
The name "Alandria" dates back to the first decades of Gretan-Phenan colonization. The first Gretan settlers referred to themselves as "Landers", and foreign sailing companies often referred to the regions of Gretan settlement as the "Lander's Land" or "Land of the Landers". "Land of" naturally got adapted as "-ia" for simplification, and soon, "Landeria" was the unofficial name of the northern Alandrian coast as a whole. Over the next century, "Landeria" was gradually simplified to "Landria", and with the publication of "A Landrian's Tale" in 1128, the name "Alandria" soon became widely-used both in Alandria and abroad.
