You do understand that all the regions exist as admin
tools of the kingdom and have no standing within the
SCA? They were created to attempt to streamline
paperwork and related items. As for distances, there
are baronies in Lochac that cover an area probably
bigger than our kingdom(Look at their kingdom amp and
check out the barony in central Aust. and the one
covering the western area), somehow they handle the
distances-maybe we can learn something from them.
