In summary

Back-formation from landscape, the suffix representing Middle Dutch -schap (“the English suffix -ship, e.g. of friendship, kinship, ownership”), from Old Dutch -skap (“-ship”), from Proto-Germanic *-skapiz (“-ship”), from *skapaz (“shape, form”). Cognate with Modern Dutch -schap (“-ship”), German -schaft (“-ship”), Swedish -skap (“-ship”), -scipe (“-ship”). More at -ship, shape.
