Good Morning,

  I propose that we go even further with it. Why not do everything
  *except* have the Coronet list.

  Let's have all the Regionals do the work that the Principality would
  require. If the current Regional is unwilling/unable, then someone
  needs to volunteer to help them.

  Let's have Regional events where we all *work* together and not just
  play together.

  Not only that, but let's give it a trial period of 1 year or more.
  After that, we can decide if we still want to be a Principality. Of
  course this trial time period can not start til we have input from more
  groups/individuals than those on-line. (Bryn Gwlad is spoiled with
  having a high percentage of its populace on-line.)

  Basically we'll be handfasted for a year to see if we can live with
  the marriage without getting a divorce. I'd rather be the couple whom
  never gets married but lives together for ever than the couple that
  gets a divorce in 3 years because they can't stand to look at each
  other.

  I suggest that we just do this as the Southern Region and worry about
  other groups *if* we get through the year without killing each other.

  I do not suggest that we become a Crown Principality since it would be
  worse psychologically to have it fail than a Region with a name.

  Btw, this is just how Ansteorra got started. As a named region that
  tried to do all the work necessary before becoming a Principality.
  There is a very good precedence for it working.

Ciao,
