Vindelaghi Tribal Complex

The Vindelaghi were a disorganized Fénic tribe living in north Gwanon, replacing the native Waitoi (Wayuu) in the region. After the initial discovery of the continent by the explorer Dimachus, it is not entirely known how the Vindelaghi traveled across the ocean. Vessels close to the ones used by Dimachus were probably used to escape Masich encroachment, and the culture probably arose from the few trade ports on the coast. Historians claim there was no organized nation on the peninsula during the initial settlement, but carbon analysis has shown evidence of humanity.

The reason the Vindelaghi weren't organized or incorporated with the rest of the Féni Empire was due to distance and cultural diffusion. The thousands of miles between Celia and Gwanon probably kept the chiefs from joining Maravian civilization, while the slow merging with Waitoi culture set it apart from Maravia. The period between initial settlement and later confederation was somewhat short, so there is not much known about the Vindelaghi as a whole. How they got their name, along with the culture that came before them is scarcely known, except for on records of trade. After around fifty years, the Vindelaghi turned into the various Vindelach Principalities, a slightly-more organized version of what came before.
