Changing the allegiance of a region

[Velax]

We recently had a lord change the allegiance of his region to another realm. The region is nowhere near that other realm (its borders are 8 regions away). I don't remember it being possible to join your region to a realm that you weren't adjacent to. Has this changed?

[Gustav Kuriga]

I think it was the fact that i was in a region of the realm I changed to.

Yeah, but before, you could only change duchy to another duchy that was next to your region.  Has this changed?  Should we be reporting this to the bugtracker?

[Draco Tanos]

If it's intended, maps may end up far more interesting.  Lots of wars could come from this.

[Telrunya]

The new Duchy Allegiance allows you to swear allegiance to a Duchy bordering your region OR swear allegiance to the Duchy you are currently in.

[Anaris]

Fully intended, no bug at all.

If it ends up causing too much chaos, we may eventually reconsider, but why don't we see where it takes us first?
