What is Alliance Merging and how does it work?

A more common occurrence in the world of Grepolis is the merging of two alliances. This can either mean that alliance A merges into alliance B or A and B both join the new alliance C (note that making a new alliance will re-set the alliance battle points in the rankings). This is often used by two alliances who want to consolidate their power peacefully and thus take over an ocean or provide a stronger resolve against a common enemy.
Many alliances write that they will not merge into another alliance in their profile, however, this is often untrue.
Note that if Alliance A merges into Alliance B, Alliance A's World Wonders are destroyed

How a merge works
If Alliance A and Alliance B have agreed to merge, they now need to decide who is merging into who. If A is merging into B, a leader of Alliance B must invite all the players in Alliance A to join them. All of these players must then leave alliance A and accept the invite.
If A and B are going to merge and form a totally new alliance C, someone must first create Alliance C and then invite all the members from both alliances.
