Eyjaskeggjaheim comprises the northernmost section, and is the home of the Eyjamaður people. To the south and east is Volksland, which is inhabited by several closely related ethnicities who all share the Inselsprach language. And finally, in the southwest is Kotimaa, where the Saarelainen people live.
