The referendum was proposed in 1890 and officially signed to be voted on in 1892 by the President Veronica Fernández and her government to federate with Gristol-Serkonos. The referendum was an extremely controversial move both within Alameda and regionally within Norumbia. The referendum was seen by many nations north of Alameda as a potentially disrupting force to the balance of power within Norumbia, and threatened to turn the balance in favor of Gristol-Serkonos.
