Territories that exist in Caid.

Kingdom

A Kingdom is a political subdivision in which the ceremonial heads are the King and Queen (together they form the Crown). Twice a year Crown Tournament is held, and the winner of the list and their consort becomes Prince and Princess, until Coronation in which they are invested as King and Queen.

Barony

A Barony is a political subdivision in which the ceremonial heads are a Baron and/or Baroness. The Baron and Baroness are installed by the Crown after following Kingdom Law for selection. Additionally Caid has one Palatine Barony, Western Seas, which the Baron and Baroness are selected by a competition (Armored Combat or Arts & Sciences).

Shire

A Shire is a political subdivision of less than Baronial status which is independent of all Baronies.

Canton

A Canton is a political subdivision within a single Barony which encompasses a fractional part of the Barony.

College

An Institutional Branch is a political subdivision of less than Baronial status which has as its geographic center a college campus, military installation, or similar institution whose residents live there for a defined time (transient population), and may call itself a College, Stronghold, Port or any other equivalent and appropriate title.
