Cwenland or Quenland is a pre-historic region at the northern Scandinavia where the Finnish people of Cwens lived. The region is often identified as the coast shore of Gulf of Bothnia. In general, Cwenland would probably mean northern Scandinavia exclusive the Sami people-inhabitat regions. Norse saga told about the kings of Cwens. Egils saga tells about Nór, founder of Norway, and his ancestors who lived in Cwenland. One of the few sources about Cwenland is Norse sagas and on Account of the Viking Othere. Cwenland has also been associated with ''Pohjola'' (Ostrobothnia) in the Finnish Kalevala-tradition folklore. Various theories concerning the name origin has been put forward. Some schools argues it is identical to the Finland region of ''Kainuu'' and others that it comes from an older name of Gulf of Bothnia. C.p. Cwen.
