Calontir is not too huge - just 4 states and Fayetteville Arkansas. Even the most difficult group to group distance is only about 9 hours.
Calontir also is not too huge in numbers of people. If you are traveling to events at least 6 times a year, you are known to most of the rest of the traveling kingdom. True, about 1/3 to 1/2 of any and every particular group doesn't travel that much, but the travelers do talk about the noteworthy deeds and skills of the less traveled group members. (When groups have less than 1/4th of their members who are "playing on a kingdom level" then the group's health sometimes comes into question.)
Calontir also has a very strong kingdom identity, built in part by the strong resistance to our birth by the crowns and power-brokers of the Middle. I can't imagine anyone in Calontir wanting to split off.
