The Crown Principality of Insulae Draconis encompasses the SCA shires of the United Kingdom and Ireland as well as the Incipient Strongold in Iceland. 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. Insulae Draconis is part of the Kingdom of Drachenwald. As of 2008 (A.S. 43), the Crown Principality has begun the process of becoming a Principality.

At Battle of Brothers in the Shire of Flintheath, in July 18th 2009 (A.S. 44), it was announced that the Board of Directors had approved Insulae Draconis's submission to become a full principality. The last viceregal tourney will be held at Ffair Rhaglan, in August, with the first coronet tourney being held in February 2010 (A.S.44)
