The California groups have tried more than once to put together a confederacy strong enough to reach kingdom status. For a variety of reasons this has not yet come to pass. There is talk of a new effort toward kingdom status in Northern California under the name Westmarch.

July 27th, 2013, the [[Amtgard]] [[Circle of Monarchs]] raised Westmarch as the 19th Kingdom! With a vote of 15 to 0.

''"This is true [[Wavehaven]], [[Wyvern's Spur]], [[Falcon's Reach]], [[Seven Sleeping Dragons]], and [[Crimson Wood]] will all be forming [[Westmarch]]. [[Ashen Spire]] will most likely join after they sign paper work with [[BL]] to become an amtgard land. [[Dame]] [[Ailanthus]] is heading this project at this time if you would like more info. She has a profile on Http:www.caamtgard.com under her name if you wish to contact her."''-[[Hannibal Finnvarra Shadowale]]

''"It'll be a while before we're a kingdom. The grouping is closer to how the IM handles things. There is a group of core lands that can't be more than 250 miles from the center of Berkeley, CA that make up the main body of the principality. Those group's members have the ability to run for principality office and vote in principality wide elections.''

''All other groups signed under westmarch would function more like any land currently signed under a static crown kingdom. While they wouldn't be eligible to vote in Westmarch's elections/althings, they would still have the ability to provide input on how things are run and suggest improvements (especially if suggestions would have an impact on their land at a local level)."''-[[Grix]]

''This is the 3rd real attempt at getting the lands to band together. The first was before I started playing amtgard and consisted of a meeting that was scheduled between Wavehaven and Crystalline Confederacy. I'm told CC didn't show. After that, the issue was brought up again and again over the years as more groups popped up in northern CA.''

''This time around, we've taken the corpora that we wrote the first time and elected 2 representatives from each of the interested northern CA lands (at the time this process was started, that included all 5 northern CA lands) to go over it together and rework it into something we could all get behind.
