Did Nymeria send those kings off all at once or were they staggered? She can’t have captured them all at once, so maybe Vorian Dayne was in the early years which gives time for Dayne/Martell relations to improve. She sent a Fowler King off as well but in the end they were allied with the Martells against the Yronwoods too. I wish we knew more about it and in what order the conquest of the westerly houses came. I’ve always thought the Fowlers were a big target because that would open a way in

I doubt it was in the early years, because the Daynes were fighting with them against the Yronwoods, which took a long time. 

If anything, I think it probably went the other way around – temporarily allying with the enemy of your enemy, and then turning on them once you no longer need them.
