'Definition by corpora' CK: A group consisting of 75 players or more.

What is it?

A large Chapter or group of chapters, given special privileges by their Kingdom. The definition varies by each kingdom's Corpora. Not all kingdoms have Principalities, some like Blackspire use the term Grand Duchy instead. Advanced chapter status can only be conferred by a kingdom.

How do you make one?

(From the Iron Mountains Corpora section 1.C. The Creation of a Principality.)
All groups seeking to form a Principality must do so by a majority vote of their provincial Allthing. Likewise groups that seek to join a principality later must also elect to do so by a majority of their provincial allthing. The Duke of the largest province in the principality provides a summary of the sponsored groups listing their locations, numbers, founding date, and the results of their provincial allthings to the Emperor and Imperial Prime Minister. The Emperor and Imperial Prime Minister must agree that that the groups meet the requirements for a principality and are ready for promotion. The Imperial althing approves the principality by a simple majority. Thereafter, the principality does not take effect until after the first principality crown qualifications have been held and the first Prince and Principality Prime minister have been elected. The Imperial Allthing may revoke a Principality’s status by a simple majority. The Imperial Prime Minister is responsible for notifying the officers of a principality as well as the officers of each sponsored province in that principality if such a proposal is made to the Imperial Allthing.

Powers of Principalities
