ANST - Kingdom growth

[Jerry Dreifuerst]

Othar here,

   In the many parts of the kingdom I have had the priviledge to visit 
in the past 7 years, (gosh it doesn't seem that long) I have gained 
quite a few new friends.  Distance, and travel time, make it difficult 
to attend events on the other side of the kingdom, however, good 
planning and scheduling can make trips to Bonwick (600mi.,100 mi. 
farther than Gulf Wars) or Oklahoma worth the effort.  A 
principality/new kingdom would only be another barrier to face when 
choosing which events to attend.  It's closer to Meridies (the Louisiana 
border) than it is to Jones Country where our local group holds events, 
yet I've never been to a Meridian event other than G.W.s.  I know the 
end responsibility is mine in looking for the right event to attend, yet 
I feel another *border* to cross would hinder, not help events grow.  
Perhaps Ansteorra could enlarge its borders and we could annex portions 
of our surrounding neighbors land that maybe they don't defend well 
enough.  Toss me in with Kief, I'm for keeping the Kingdom we have.
