> Holmrike is the Stockholm part of Nordmark (i think, or rather know,
> but i don't know the exact geographical extent of it though), 
> but i must confess that i'm not a true SCA member *gasp*.
> I've instead joined another group called Nordrike.
> A few years go there was a small schism in Nordmark so some members
> left and started Nordrike.
> We have the same goals/interests as SCA when it comes to recreating
> the Middle Ages or 7-17th century.
> The reason for the split came up when the kingdom of Nordmark should
> form and make up it's own laws.
> There was (i've been told, this was 3 or 4 years before i became
> member) quite a few problems to solve and some lousy diplomacy from
> both parts.
> Finally many grew tired of the seemingly endless argueing back and
> forth and started Nordrike.
> Nowadays it has all blown over though and I have quite a few friends
> in the SCA and vice versa.
> The biggest difference that springs to mind is that in Nordrike the
> king and queen is appointed in democratic elections, not from their 
> combat proficiency, which, speaking as an cooking alchemist slash
> bowman I think is quite good since anyone interested can have a 
> chance at royalty.
