Surrender of Hammarsett was #1.
People often forget it.
I believe an important distinction between the surrender of Hammarsett and this case is that while the surrender of Hammarsett was an exploit of the duchy movement bug, it was not in fact a realm merger as it was not done on friendly terms.
The current case was done on friendly terms with prior permission from leadership within Astrum. A(At least based upon Allison's IC letters)
