What are border princes?

If I had a dollar for every dollar I spent I'd have all my money back.

I also read somewhere that that area was plagued by bandits and other threats and many people who can't live anywhere else flee there. Some of the border princes are just powerful bandit or mecenary leaders who decided that they felt like be a king, so claimed the land as their own.

I think the term covers anyone who rules a large amount of area in that area so anyone from the ruler of a small group of people to a large outlaw group. Also I don't think the border princes are restricted to normal humans, they also contain Ogres, Chaos warbands, Vampires and any other creatures that don't really fit in anywhere else.

Don't take this all as fact- I think it's correct from what i've read but im not 100% sure.

Some of the Boarder Princes are second or third sons of Empire nobles who have taken some retainers and struck out on their own they are nominally loyal to the Empire but not to a great extent. Others are noblemen who have somehow lost there lands in the Empire to others they are out for themselves and others are nothing more than robber barrons. I got most of this from an old computer game and Gotrek and Felix

Border princes are Brettonian crusaders who settled south of Brettonia after the crusades. This is from the Brettonian army book.
