You might not know it, but Wisconsin is part of a modern medieval kingdom called Northshield. It’s one of nineteen such kingdoms worldwide, created and run by the Society for Creative Anachronism, or S. C. A. Producer Aubrey Ralph paid a visit to a local chapter, to find out what life in these modern Middle Ages is like.
