Regarding population, Corpora states.......

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.

               a. At least 100 subscribing members.

(rest of requirements snipped)

Year end 1996 Ansteorran population counts for the groups mentioned are:

Dragonsfire Tor.............10
Dun anLocha Ruaidh.....18
Elfsea.............................55
Steppes..........................121

Total...............................204

These are substaining members, ie: the only ones that count in this matter.
For comparison, Stargate has 83, Byrn Gwlad 75,  Bjornsburg 64, Wiesnfeuer
57, Northkeep 68.

By region: Central 266
                  Coastal 237
                  Northern 279
                  Southern 221
                  Western 113

Again, these are year end 1996 (over a year old). Does anyone have current
numbers?
