from the other perspective, one of the primary reason's that many in 
my generation stopped "playing" was that as the kingdom started to 
grow and events started happening farther and farther away more 
frequently, the logistics of holding down a real-world career (with 
limited time off), keeping home and familiy together, and keeping 
non-SCA interests nurtured, ... started to preclude attending 
major events that took inordinate driving time to get to and from.  

basically, the fun-factor started to decline while the hassle-factor 
increased ... eventually, according to the laws of diminishing 
returns, many people started fading away.

then there was the growing "regionalization" that was a real-mindset 
(north and south) a long time before it was officially acknowledged 
with the recent "region" structure.  

to my mind, creating a new principality would go a long was to
addressing these concerns (and many others that are being raised)
and make the SCA a more viable option of current and future members.
