A region that has a device and name registered with the COH is called a
crown principality.  It is not an officially recognized Principality as
defined in Corpora.  It can be done totally at the discretion of the
Kingdom.  However, this may change as the BOD is considering including this
as an officially recognized branch.  If any region of Ansteorra is
interested in registering a name and device it should take it up with the
Crown and Kingdom Seneschal.
