There is alot that goes into a merger. I won't go into the details of the PSK/PSE merger, I just got a brainful of new info after going to convention. But, the basic steps we went through are as follows.
The National Presidents discussed it.
They presented it to the councils.
The councils work out details such as which name, ritual, symbols, etc to use.
The councils passed it on to the conventions.
The conventions vote on it if it passes then continue to the next step.
Both orgs begin the work of becoming one.
They work on what to use from who.
A date is set on when they become one org.
They eventually become one org and usually incorporate parts of rituals, symbols, names, etc.
