They can't be, by Corpora:

    2. Principalities.  A principality is a part of a
    kingdom which has the right to select a reigning Prince
    and Princess by combat.  A branch or contiguous group of
    branches within a kingdom may petition for principality
    status if the resulting entity would fulfill the
    requirements listed below. ...

         d. Consensus favoring advancement in branch status,
         among the members in the proposed principality.

If a canton, shire, or barony didn't want to be in the
p-word, they presumably wouldn't join the petition.  If
their officers snuck one by the group, the mandatory polling
(how the consensus is judged for p-word or k-word
advancement) would, I hope, bring it out.
