    The Flag of the Confederation of Lylybium combines the dominant elements of the flags of Arthor and Caarns, the two largest constituent "nations" of the Confederation.

    Property of the crown in the Potomac river valley. The official royal residence, Washington Palace, is also largely ceremonial. Much of the business of the crown within in the District is conducted at the Arlington House, outside of downtown and with a little more privacy. However the royals...
