Well, we are much bigger than a small kingdom like the Outlands with ony 30 
groups but large kingdoms have as many groups as us. The East, for 
example, which has something like 75 groups in 4 regions. The Middle has 
84 in 4 regions and that does not count the 35 in the soon to be kingdom 
of Northshield. Yes, those are big kingdoms but they manage their calendar 
somehow. Perhaps we should look over some of their ideas and see if they 
are worth stealing. ;-)

Besides, if a new kingdom splits off from the Middle they only have to stop 
being from the Middle. If a new kingdom split off from Ansteorra they 
would have to stop being Ansteorran!
