[Ansteorra] Principality?

[Duncan MacNamara]

Yes, I understand that it's political and not physical... but eventually, a Principality would want to become a Kingdom in it's own right. I'm looking at the long-term effects, and that would be a Principality turning into a Kingdom. And I for one am not in favor of it. Or any course of action that would result in splitting the Kingdom in two... and what purpose is there in becoming a Principality, if not to eventually become a Kingdom, hmm?
   
  I understand the constraints which are being placed on people due to the gas problem, and I don't like the gas prices any more than the next person. In fact, I hate the rising cost of gas and everything else, especially in light of the fact that minimum wage hasn't changed in many years. But I do not think it's a valid excuse to start the ball rolling towards splitting the Kingdom. Plus I do not think the Northern Region has the numbers to be self-sustaining as a Principality, or eventually a Kingdom.

  Just my two cents. I'm an Ansteorran... and if the Northern Region becomes a Principality... it's just a matter of time before the push to become their own Kingdom.

There would be no walls and gates at the borders, so anyone can freely
go to any events they like.

Also, a Principality (or more than one) would not be splitting up the
Kingdom any more than separate Baronies are splitting up the Kingdom.
One can live in the Barony of Bloodstone in the Principality of
Nowhere in the Kingdom of Ansteorra, and one is still an Ansteorran.
