1.) Run a foam Pennsic (East and Mid = Dagorhir and Belegarth) run with Dagorhir and Belegarth rules and administration in alternating years (think of it as super play testing of our slight rules variations).
2.) Have the Belegarth president sign a slightly modified contract (lose the bit about giving away all your corporations assets if you don't have a valid Dagorhir contract) which in effect gives "contract" cover to all Belegarth chapters.
3.) Belegarth and Dagorhir run just as they do today (voting, own rules, hosting events, running boards, etc.)
Pretty simple isn't it. The DBGA gets a contract. Both groups run their internal affairs as they see fit, we get official cross over and cross promotion making the overall sport larger. We have a great opportunity to play test slight rules changes.
Neat, isn't it?

The Brits still think we are corny and have bad taste, but when push comes to shove we back each other.

Uh, 30-something years after the Declaration of Independence we were fighting the War of 1812, so it took more than a few years. It wasn't till near the end of the 1800s that we started cooperating, and then only because the British wanted to use the US as a counter-weight to other "minor" naval powers.
Sorry, that History minor sneaks out at times...

There are no ovens full of jews here, just a few people who have been banned from posting on an Internet forum. Huge difference.
Peregrine, I, personally, would really like to see reunification. I think it's silly that we have a Bel group and a Dag group in the same city in some cases, competing for members. At worst, I'd like to see them coordinate, hold joint practices and events, that sort of thing. But that's the thing - we can unify fighters and events, without officially unifying the sports. And I really think reconciliation is important, regardless of reunification.

Ah yes, but if you go by the standard that many use and it is a 5 to 1 ratio of Dag/Bel years to real years... we are at 35 years since the split. Doing the math, 1776+35 = 1811, which means we should be on the doorstep of getting things in order.
Now back to the discussion at hand. Kyrax, since you are a partaker of both games, what is your formula for healing old wounds in a manner in which neither side will feel slighted.
There are no staffs in Belegarth. Because of how they are constructed, they are really Pugil Sticks.
