Just found this while searching for something else.
Crown Inscriptions

Inside the Royal crowns of Caid are inscribed the words "You rule
because they believe". What a fitting sentiment! Now, one wonders,
might be fitting for the inscriptions inside crowns from other SCA
Kingdoms and principalities? The denizens of the Steps of the
Cathedral of An Tir mailing list came up with the following
suggestions:

Any Kingdom: "I fought in Crown Tourney, and all I got was this
stupid crown!"

Any Kingdom: "Next time, fall down!"

Kingdom of the West: "Today, the West, tomorrow the Known World!"

Principality of Avacal: "I never wanted to be a Prince(ss). I wanted
to be.. a lumberjack!"

Kingdom of An Tir: "This is your crown. It's worn on your head.
Pointy ends up. Take your helm off, first."

Kingdom of Ansteorra: "Y'all rule nicely, now!"

Midrealm: "At least I get to go to Pennsic!"

Kingdom of the East: "The King's word is a damned fine suggestion!"

Kingdom of Atlantia: "At least we keep Trimaris from smashing into
Eastrealm."

Kingdom of Ealdormere: "BOD? What BOD?" (Ealdormere is the first
fully Canadian Kingdom; the BOD's rulings have very little "force-of-
law" there.)

Kingdom of Drachenwald: "Ich bin eine Berliner"

Atenveldt: "The SUN is NOT your friend, and DON'T drink the water!"

Kingdom of Atenveldt: "Stay in the shade or they'll melt."

Kingdom of Trimaris: "Equipped with a flotation device in case of
swamp landing."

Kingdom of Drachenwald: "Don't let the REAL monarchs know!" (In 5
different languages.)

Kingdom of An Tir: "Vacancy. Inquire within."

Pricipality of Lochac: "Court first--sheep later."

Principality of the Mists: "Flip switch at rear to activate fog
lights."

Kingdom of Atlantia: "If found, return to Michael of Bedford."
(Michael was the first King of Atlantia and has reigned seven times.)

Kingdom of An Tir: "On loan from Sir Barak."

Kingdom of the East: "COFFEE FIRST!"

If Rivers Region in An Tir becomes a Principality: "All wet!"

If Northern Region in An Tir becomes a Principality: "Take off, eh?!"
