The problem with that is when the peasants start to decide they hate  
a realm with whom your realm has been an ally since its founding,  
whose members you know, who are great friends of yours...and that  
they like the people whose leaders just stabbed you in the back and  
attacked you for no reason other than that they want to take your land.

Without some *really* good ways to tell which alliances are based on  
solid RP and history, and which are just based on a desire to win,  
there's no way to make that feature work well.
