There is a prerequisite when one wants to change the borders of a
kingdom/principality. A need arises to do so.. this is not done on one person's
whim...As for the principality, i don't think it is needed and I personally don't
want it at this time.
My reasons have been stated over and over.... as have your reasons to want it. I
just haven't heard anything compelling enough to do it. That again, is my
opinion. And I do have a right to it!

Personally, my choice of house or restaurant doesn't have any bearing on 325_
people in this region but a principality does.

Sorry, this is where i disagree. What I do for fun is one thing. To me, a
principality comes about to fill a need, either one due to isolation (which is
the case for ansteorra's quick rise to kingdom status) or growth in a region that
has started to act more like a principality (see Nordsteorra for an expample of
that region).  Do I think the principality fills that 'need'?  IMHO, no it does
not.

Very doubtful of that one.
