Principality of Insulae Draconis

The Principality of Insulae Draconis encompasses the SCA shires of the United Kingdom and Ireland as well as an incipient stronghold in Iceland. Insulae Draconis is part of the Kingdom of Drachenwald.

History

After many long years of attempting to unite themselves under a single name and banner, these 11 groups were granted the right to form a Crown Principality in June 2003.

In November 2003 Sir Michael de Brad travelled from the noble Shire of Harpelestane and became the first Viceroy with Duchessa Alessandra Melusine Mantegna as his Vicereine.

As of 2008 (A.S. XLIII), the Crown Principality began the process of becoming a Principality. At Battle of Brothers in the Shire of Flintheath, on July 18th 2009 (A.S. XLIV), it was announced that the Board of Directors had approved Insulae Draconis's submission to become a full principality. The last viceregal tourney was held at Ffair Rhaglan, in August, with the first coronet tourney being held in February 2010 (A.S. XLIV).

In February 2010 Sir William MacBrennan travelled from the noble Shire of Harpelestane and became the first Prince accompanied by his lady Mistress Æringunnr Yrsudóttir.

The groups within the Principality are:

• The Shire of Harpelestane
• The Shire of Pont Alarch
• The Shire of Flintheath
• The Shire of Thamesreach
• The Shire of Mynydd Gwyn
• The Shire of West Dragoningshire
• The Shire of Glen Rathlin
• The Shire of Eplaheimr
• The Shire of Dun in Mara
• The Incipient Shire of Raven's Keep
• The Shire of Klakavirki

The current rulers are a Prince and Princess chosen by armed combat. In February 2014, the length of the reign in Insulae Draconis changed from six to nine months.
