AUSTURVEGR

ALLT FYRIR

On a side note, what do you all think of the flag? The Coat of Arms is temporary until we actually make one, and I can remove it completely if need be, but overall I think it's solid.

Probably similar to that, yes.

Also I just realized that one of my ideas was to round vowels after [v] as well as a general u-umlaut of [a], so it would likely be [ɔ] [ɪ] [ɪ] [i]. Probably spelt Várifriki or Vårifriki

Ah, I see. On that note, I have a submission of my own:

It's going to be a Nordic nation in the Norwegian Sea with a significant Norse pagan minority. Other than that, not a great deal. We're currently discussing names. Naturally we already have a full host of parties, of course.
