Description

The Crown Principality of Tir Mara comprises all of the Canadian lands within the borders of the Kingdom of the East. This area is vast, making up around four fifths of the land of the kingdom. As of this writing in AS 48, this territory is still a Crown Principality, with the Crown Prince and Crown Princess of the East being also the Prince and Princess of Tir Mara, until They have found Their heirs.

History

Before the Crown Principality, we had a Northern Region that was made up both American and Canadian land, however it was later recognized, by many, that the Canadian groups (made up of Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland and Labrador) had their own separate needs that were better dealt with by having separate Canadian deputies. Because of this, in 1999, the formation of a new District was discussed and before the end of the year of 2000, the Northern Shores was now a District of the Northern Region.

By April of 2001, it was announced that the Northern Shores would now be recognized as a region within the East Kingdom. The big news with this is that the new region will get to share in the rotation of Spring Crown Tournaments. Before this point, they were considered part of the Northern Region rotation.
Spring Crown Tournament, which is held on the first Saturday in May and, if necessary, the last Saturday in April rotated through the Northern Shores Region every two years with the first one being held in this new rotation was in the then, Shire of L'ile du Dragon Dormant in May of 2002. From here, just as the event is rotated through the East Kingdom, it was also rotated through the Region as it is today through the Crown Principality allowing groups to put in bids is they are capable of holding it, or if not, passing it on to another group giving preference to one that has not held it (or held it recently).
Since the time of being a District, the group had already begun having Northern Shores tournaments of Arms which then expanded into Regional competitions for A&S, Archery and Rapier which also were organized in a rotation between the groups.
Other earlier milestones (some official, some not so much) included the creation of the Boreal Army and a badge which much of Tir Mara rallied behind, the Northern Shores Warcamp in Lyndhaven and eventually the Aurora Borealis Newsletter, Nothern Shores website with a full list of deputy officers, the Northern Shores Royal Travel Fund and a push further for a Principality! Most of this time being under Aetheric Lindenerende who was the Deputy Kingdom seneschal for the Northern Shores District and then late the Northern Shores Region Seneschal through the first months of the new Crown Principality of Tir Mara and then followed by his former Deputy, Gwenhwyfar Dinas Emrys, then Cristiana ingen Mec-Bead and Alessandra Francesca di Milano.
