Finnland is the strange land from beyond the twisted red stone doorways (which are ter'angreal) and is the home of the Aelfinn and Eelfinn. This land, through the Finn, gave birth to the game Snakes and Foxes; a game that is played by children of Randland until the individual child learns they can't win under the rules of the game. This represents the fact that it seems as if, without cheating, you cannot win against any of the Finn.
In the end of The Fires of Heaven Lanfear, while attacking Rand al'Thor, is pushed through the doorway that leads to the land "owned" by the Eelfinn by Moiraine Damodred where they both are presumed to die. It is fairly obvious by now that Cyndane is Lanfear, suggesting that at some point in Finnland she died and was resurrected by the Dark One.
