First, the personal politics occurs PRIOR to any request to set
up a separate branch.  If the politics does not occur prior to
the request, then obviously the politics is not the reason, since
it did not occur in a time frame which would allow it to be
causitive.

Second, since the politics must have occurred priosr to a request
to separate for that reason, there is likely to be notice by
people outside of the branch experiencing the problem.  In fact,
the reports by the officers probably include some notice of 
any problems at the local level, especially in the reports by
the seneschal.

Third, that being the case, there are records of the problem
with someone official, like the kingdom seneschal, who has the
connections to make such a request unlikely to be granted.
