Yes, but I'd like to consider uniting the three kingdoms and having dominion over the Korean peninsula to be a territorial accomplishment, so I like to consider that Silla's expansionist peak.
Probably should have included his son, Munmu in that roster then.
Speaking of conquerors, I feel I have words in regards to the media depiction of it here after watching two blockbuster films that covered the subject, but I'm going to save it for later.

Taejong Muyeol didn't unify the three kingdoms, King Munmu did, which is why I wondered why they didn't pick King Munmu as the main character when King's Dream was airing. And even then, some people don't want to consider this as "real unification" since Shilla failed to absorb most of Goguryeo's territory and Balhae was founded as a successor to Goguryeo not too long after the fall of Goguryeo.
