Realizing that principality doesn't necessarilly mean "new kingdom", I 
still would not care to see our beloved Ansteorra carved up into 2,3 
or more principalities. I guess my basic question is "Why do we wish 
to form a principality? What are the benefits? I know plenty of 
gentles who pretty much play in their own backyard, being the north. 
This will not change much whether we are principalitied (new word?) or 
not. 
I guess I do see this as much bigger than Baronial elevations. Whereas 
I would be thrilled to see Mooneschadowe become a barony, the effect 
on Gnomon Vale would still be minimum. Obviously, the effect of a 
principality in the north would greatly effect us all.
