Langvinn

Langvinn is a fictional coastal town created for use in geographic and cultural reference materials. It is situated in the Norðara archipelago, along a protected harbor on the western coast of the main island. The landscape features rocky shores, spruce forests, and shallow bays that host seasonal aquaculture. The climate is temperate maritime, with cool summers and mild, wet winters.

Langvinn's fictional history traces settlement to a Norse-inspired diaspora in the late medieval period. A natural harbor supported a fishing economy, and a small trading post evolved into a municipal community. The town survived several storms and a century of shifting governance before becoming part of a standardized provincial framework in the 19th century.

Governance is modeled on a mayor-council system, with a mayor and a six-member town council elected for four-year terms. Local policy emphasizes sustainable fisheries, harbor maintenance, and heritage preservation. The town maintains a waterfront district, a small shipyard, and a regional cultural center.

The economy centers on fishing, fish processing, and related services, supplemented by tourism focused on coastal scenery and hiking routes. Langvinn hosts an annual harvest festival and seasonal markets that showcase local crafts and seafood. The population is depicted as a small, multilingual community with a core that speaks a fictional Langvian language alongside a majority regional language.
