Magal

The Magal (probably from *ma- and *-kel, 'to bend, curl', or proto-Wiyang *gálaŋ 'respect') was a political unity that spanned northern Ausarea in the late High Antiquity from the 12th to 9th centuries BCE. The Magal was a confederation of kingdoms established by Boreomarine peoples that expanded out from Nesada (today a part of Turon) and polities that were their allies or trade partners. It primarily demonstrated its power as a military alliance and trade bloc, though more notably the elites of its member polities considered themselves part of the same Magalic high culture. The Antiquity collapse brought an end to the Magal as its constituents collapsed and/or were invaded by nomads of the Kataran.
