Full Complaint Text:
The realms of Silnaria and Coria were at war. Coria was down to their two last regions Lothruin and Menedor of whom Munros characters were lords of both. Tara was defending these regions from Silnaria. However, once Silnaria successfully assaulted the Corian region of Menedor and began the takeover. Both remaining regions were transferred from Corian control to Taran merging the two realms.
As I received no direct correspondence from either the characters of Munro or the leadership of Tara I cannot confirm with letter evidence the intent behind the actions taken and trust that the Magistrates can request access to whatever evidence they might need in that regard. At any rate, the entire realm of Coria has in the past fee days merged with their ally Tara.

Honestly, when it's just 2 regions and not even a city, is there really any notion of a 'realm' merger? Coria didn't even have a capital, so IMHO it wasn't even a realm anymore.

I'm inclined to agree with this to an extent. Coria was not a viable realm anymore. Its only city was taken by Silnaria. At that point I'm not convinced you can call it a realm merger in the sense of the type of transaction we're trying to discourage with that rule.
In addition, Lothruin revolted and joined Tara; it wasn't an action intentionally undertaken by the lord of Lothruin, but a result of game mechanics.

In that case, why does the game continue to recognize realms that lose their last city? I'm not talking about the need for manual deletion but shouldn't the game automatically force all regions and nobles of the realm rogue then once they lose their last city because the realm is dead under your interpretation?
Yet, the game continues to recognize the realm as functioning. Militia can still be recruited and armies still utilized. In addition, all RP I have seen indicates that the playerbase believes a realm to still exist so long as it holds regions and nobles both.

But the transfer of Menedor was intentional. It is highly likely that the transfer of both regions was intended but not able to be fully executed. However, such can only be confirmed via access to the letters of those involved. In addition, prior orders by this players characters to the lord of Anfalas were made with the intent of transferring regions to Tara to deny them from other realms. Even though that action may not be relevant to this case the intent can be.
